1970 Map of Simpson Draw NW

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Lebar Ranch and the small settlement of Lebar anchor this rural landscape in Converse County at the dawn of the 1970s. The terrain is defined by the intricate branching of Walker Creek, including the West Fork and South Fork, which carve through the high plains. A single Pipeline and scattered markers like a Drill Hole suggest the industrial presence and energy exploration occurring in the region during this era. The map records a sparsely populated ranching territory where local infrastructure is limited to unimproved roads and a few key water sources such as Willow Creek. It offers a clear view of the mid-century land use in a corner of Wyoming before more modern developments changed the character of these ranch holdings.
