1982 Map of Poddy Creek

About this map

The Cheyenne River winds through the southern reaches of this landscape, defining the boundary between Weston and Niobrara counties. The terrain is a network of seasonal drainages and draws, such as School Draw, Dixon Draw, and Fred Draw, which feed into larger watercourses like Black Thunder Creek and Poddy Creek. This 1980s-era survey highlights the expansion of the energy industry in the Powder River Basin, evidenced by the numerous clusters of Oil Wells, Gas Wells, and storage Tanks concentrated near the Clareton Oil Field. The primary artery through this high plains region is Dull Center Road, providing access to the scattered drilling sites and cattle operations that define the local economy. Notable family-named features like Turner Creek and Owl Creek offer clues for genealogists tracing ranching history along the river breaks.
