2012 Map of Sooner Reservoir

About this map

Sooner Reservoir sits within a landscape defined by the high desert plains of Sweetwater County, where the topography is shaped by the subtle drainage of Stratton Draw. The map reveals the infrastructure of resource extraction and public land management in the early 21st century, dominated by a grid of industrial and administrative thoroughfares. Transportation through this arid region is facilitated by routes such as BLM Road 3215 and Minerals Exploration Rd, highlighting the area's role in Wyoming's mineral economy. The presence of these specific road names suggests a workspace of energy development and federal land oversight, where water features like the reservoir serve as critical landmarks in an otherwise open and sparse terrain.
