2012 Map of Sand Draw

About this map

Big Sand Draw Oil and Gas Field defines the industrial character of this Fremont County landscape, situated just east of the small settlement at Sand Draw. The 2012 topography reveals a high-desert environment where resource extraction is the primary human footprint, marked by the extensive network of service roads like Oil Springs Rd and Sand Draw Field Rd. Natural landmarks punctuate the terrain, providing essential orientation points in an otherwise sparse basin. These include the prominent Oil Mountain to the east and the long stretch of McTurk Ridge in the southwest. A single water source, Carlson Spring, is noted near the ridge, highlighting the importance of isolated springs in this arid region. The presence of Bringoff Ranch Rd suggests the area's dual history of ranching alongside its more prominent energy production.
