1951 Map of Mc Cleary Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Oregon Trail tracks across the southeastern corner of this high-plains landscape, marking a historic corridor that runs parallel to modern utility developments like the Pipe Line. The area is defined by its ranching heritage, centered on the CRI Ranch and UC Ranch, with the small CRI School serving the local families in this part of Natrona County. Water management is central to life here, with the McCleary Reservoir and Luten Reservoir capturing seasonal flows from Shell Creek and Pino Draw. The topography transitions from the dramatic named high ground of Horse Heaven in the west down toward the drainage networks of Horse Creek and Henderson Creek. Compiled from mid-century surveys with 1980s updates, the map shows the persistence of early wagon routes, including Burnt Wagon Draw, alongside the evolving infrastructure of the Missouri River Basin development project.
