1961 Map of The Reefs

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The geological ridge known as The Reefs dominates the northern terrain of this Natrona County landscape, surveyed initially in 1947 and updated via aerial photography in the early 1970s. The region is characterized by an extensive network of pipelines and energy infrastructure, including an Abandoned Oil Tank Farm and scattered Oil Wells. The small settlement at Richardson Acres sits near the intersection of these industrial corridors and the primary highway, providing a rare residential footprint in an otherwise industrial and topographic expanse. To the east, Harford Field serves the local aviation needs, while prominent water features like Soda Lake and Ninemile Lake break the arid basin. This map documents a period of significant industrial transition as the energy infrastructure of Wyoming expanded around established natural landmarks.
