About this map

The Rozet Oil Field and surrounding energy landscapes dominate this 1971 survey of Campbell County. The area is defined by a dense network of petroleum exploration, with the Pleasant Valley Oil Field and Halverson Oil Field marking the transition from ranching to industrial extraction. At the center of this activity, the small settlement of Rozet serves as a hub along the Burlington Northern railroad, which parallels the winding course of Donkey Creek.

Evidence of local history and rural life remains visible through landmarks like the Cem south of town and the Roadside Park along the highway. The landscape rises to distinct high points such as Indian Tree Hill and Gradle Butte, while numerous reservoirs like Fischer Res and Jiggs Res dot the drainages, reflecting the critical importance of water management in this arid stretch of Wyoming's eastern plains.
