1949 Map of Pratts Soda Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Pratts Soda Lakes and the isolated Suicide Soda Lake define the arid alkali-rich landscape of this Natrona County region during the late 1940s. The terrain is marked by a transition from traditional routes to industrial development, featuring the historic path of the Emigrant Trail cutting across the southern portion of the quadrangle. This path runs nearly parallel to the more modern Geary Dome Road, illustrating the evolution of transport in the Wyoming interior. Resource extraction is evident through the presence of the Blue Rock Coal Mine and Swigart Coal Mine, along with a burgeoning network of energy infrastructure represented by an Oil Pipe Line and Telephone Line that crisscross the sagebrush flats and high ridges near Campbell Hill.
