About this map

Sand Creek and its tributaries carve through this Wyoming landscape, revealing an era defined by resource extraction and livestock ranching. The 1967 field survey documents a network of infrastructure essential to the local economy, including numerous locations marked as Gas Well, Oil Well, and Drill Hole. These industrial points are scattered across the terrain alongside evidence of the region's agricultural roots, most notably the Tolman Shearing Pens located near the center of the sheet.

Water management is central to life in this arid environment, as seen in the presence of the Tolman Sand Creek Reservoir and Clydeos Reservoir. The drainage patterns of Slick Creek and the East Fork of Sand Creek dictate the placement of local thoroughfares like Marco Road. Several family-named features, such as Faure Well, provide valuable data for genealogists tracing the footprint of early residents and their land holdings.
