1966 Map of Ruby Knolls

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Ruby Knolls rises as a prominent landmark in this high desert landscape of Sweetwater County, marking a terrain defined by ancient drainage patterns and modern industrial infrastructure. This 1966 survey, later updated with revisions from 1980, reveals a dry environment where significant geographic features like Buck Draw and Creston Draw cut through the arid plains. The presence of a prominent Pipeline and several scattered Drill Holes points to the region's mid-century role in resource extraction and energy development. The map meticulously documents the transition from the mid-1960s to the early 1980s, providing a precise record of how surveyors tracked the subtle topography of the Wyoming basin during a period of shifting land use and exploration.
