1952 Map of Rongis Reservoir SE

About this map

The Muskrat Oil Field and scattered drilling operations define this arid Fremont County landscape in the early 1950s. While a few isolated oil and gas wells are indicated, much of the terrain is shaped by a complex network of ephemeral drainages, including the three-pronged forks of Horseshoe Draw and the deep cuts of Mahoney Draw and Murphy Draw. The presence of small water management features like East Horseshoe Res, Sherlock Reservoir, and Barber Reservoir points to the vital importance of water storage for ranching and industry in this high-desert environment.
