2021 Map of Oil Mountain

Water management is central to this semi-arid terrain, as seen in the engineered path of the Casper Canal, which utilizes Tunnel Number 5 to navigate the elevation changes. Local drainages like Poison Spider Cr, Clevidence Draw, and Iron Cr define the natural watershed, leading toward the Gothberg Shed Reservoir. This map documents a high-plains environment defined by energy extraction and cattle ranching, where remote section lines and gravel roads are the primary human imprints on the land.
