About this map

Dodds Ranch and West Poison Spider Camp anchor this high-plains landscape in western Natrona County, where land use is defined by ranching and petroleum interests. The drainage network is particularly detailed, tracing the winding courses of Poison Spider Cr and its tributaries, including Soap Cr and Austin Cr. The presence of Forest Oil Rd indicates the industrial footprint of the region's energy sector during the early 21st century. Further south, the evocative name Burnt Wagon Draw hints at the area's overland travel history, while S Fork Casper Cr marks the northern extent of this arid terrain. This topographic survey captures the sparse settlement patterns typical of the Wyoming interior, where life revolves around the intersection of water sources and resource extraction routes.
