1969 Map of Lay SE

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Lay Creek and the North Fork define this high-plateau landscape in Moffat County, where the topography of the late 1960s is marked by early energy exploration and rural infrastructure. The map reveals a distribution of scattered extractive activities, including multiple Drill Holes, Oil Wells, and a specific Oil Well site south of Big Gulch. These features, alongside the presence of a Flowing Well and Gravel Pits, highlight the area's transition from open range to a more industrialised resource landscape. Road 40 cuts through the southern half of the quadrangle, serving as the primary corridor through this terrain of deep gulches and high ridges. The detailed surveying captures the exact placement of these wells and pits before further expansion of the regional energy sector altered the surface character of the land.
