The Poison Spider Oil Field anchors this mid-century survey of the Wyoming landscape northwest of Casper. In the early 1950s, the area’s economy was defined by a mix of ranching and extraction, evidenced by the West Poison Spider Camp and the presence of an Oil Well and Oil Tank. While the energy sector grew, the map also notes the Poison Spider Coal Mine (Inactive), marking a shift in local mining activity.
