About this map

Collums Oil Field anchors the upper central portion of this Campbell County landscape, reflecting the industrial character of the region during the early 21st century. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of seasonal drainages known locally as draws, including the eponymous Pitch Draw and the descriptively named Square Rock Draw. These geographic features dictate the sparse road network, which is primarily composed of local and private routes such as Horse Creek Rd and Collins Rd.

Water management is evident at Norfolk Reservoir, situated near Squaw Cr and Sage Draw. This map illustrates the convergence of several major creeks, most notably Horse Cr and Spring Cr, which carve through the high plains. The distribution of features like Heydecker Draw and Paul Draw suggests a landscape utilized for resource extraction and ranching, characteristic of northeastern Wyoming's rugged energy-producing corridors.
