About this map

The boundary between Big Horn and Washakie Counties divides this drainage basin, recorded during the post-war expansion of the Missouri River Basin project. The landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the prominent Dobie Creek, Alamo Creek, and the various forks of Tenmile Creek. This 1951 field check reveals an area primarily focused on resource extraction, punctuated by several Oil Well sites and unimproved trails that navigate the undulating terrain south of Dobie Butte. The distribution of these wells alongside unnamed tracks suggests an active period of petroleum exploration in this segment of the Bighorn Basin, providing a specific record of early 1950s energy infrastructure in Wyoming.
