2021 Map of Pedro

About this map

Pedro sits at the heart of this Weston County landscape, where the drainage systems of Skull Cr and Oil Cr carve through the high plains. The area is defined by its ranching and grazing heritage, much of it preserved within the Thunder Basin National Grassland. A network of canyons and draws, including Coyote Canyon and Crane Canyon, breaks the terrain, while reliable water sources like Home Ranch Spring and the Bernard Howell Reservoir provide the necessary infrastructure for life in this arid environment. The map records localized history through landmarks like the Freel Gravesite, a singular point of personal history in the wide drainage of Sixmile Basin. Near the southern edge, Mondell Field serves as a modern landing strip, marking the intersection of traditional land use and contemporary transportation in this pocket of eastern Wyoming.
