1966 Map of Zimmerman Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Zimmerman Buttes dominate this high-desert landscape in the late 1960s, straddling the county line between Washakie and Hot Springs counties. The area is characterized by an intricate drainage system including Nowater Creek, Pistol Draw, and Zimmerman Draw, which cut through the arid terrain. While the landscape appears sparsely settled, the map reveals the infrastructure of resource management through features like Neiber Well, William Reservoir, and Election Reservoir. Landmark features like Potter Butte and Rocky Point serve as navigational anchors in this basin environment. The presence of a Pipeline and scattered Drill Holes underscores the region's importance to Wyoming's energy economy, while Zimmerman Springs highlights the rare natural water sources essential for life in the high plains.
