2012 Map of Klodt Reservoir

About this map

The Mush Creek Oil Field serves as a central industrial landmark in this corner of Weston County, illustrating the intersection of energy production and ranching life in the early 21st century. The landscape is defined by its drainages, where Beaver Cr, Mush Cr, and Fiddler Cr carve through the terrain, punctuated by features like Luce Draw and Slagle Draw. The settlement pattern is anchored by established family operations, including the Whitney Ranch, Sedgewick Ranch, and Townsend Ranch. For the local historian or researcher, the map details a functional network of rural infrastructure, such as Mush Creek Rd and Mush Creek Cutoff, which connect these remote outposts to the namesake Klodt Reservoir and the broader Wyoming high plains.
