1970 Map of Piney Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

Moore Ranch serves as a lone human landmark in this section of Converse County, where the high plains landscape is defined by a dendritic network of drainages. Ephemeral water sources and scattered infrastructure dominate the terrain, including Box Creek and Lightning Creek in the north, and Walker Creek further south. The map documents an area deeply tied to ranching and resource extraction, evidenced by several Flowing Wells and an isolated Oil Well. A remote Landing Strip near the center of the sheet indicates the vast distances involved in traversing this part of Wyoming during the late twentieth century. In the southern reaches, Willow Creek and Piney Creek cut through the topography, illustrating the essential relationship between water and land use in this semi-arid region.
