About this map

The Fiddler Creek Oil Field dominates this 1982 map of the Wyoming high plains, showing a landscape defined by energy extraction and drainage networks. The terrain is marked by numerous Oil Wells and Drill Holes, particularly concentrated in the southeastern portion of the quadrangle. These industrial markings overlay a complex system of seasonal watercourses, including West Fork Buffalo Creek and Hay Creek. A single Radio Tower stands as a prominent man-made landmark amidst the undulating drainage divides of Lone Tree Cr and East Fork Hay Creek. The map documents a period when the local economy was heavily integrated with petroleum exploration, revealing the specific locations of active wells and exploration sites across the Weston County landscape during the early 1980s.
