About this map

Bear River Divide defines the drainage patterns of this high-elevation landscape in Lincoln County, where high ridges and complex creek systems dominate the topography. To the north, Fossil Ridge and Elk Mtn overlook a network of seasonal and perennial waters including Clear Creek and Bridger Fork. The map documents a specific environmental state in the early 1960s, showing how the land is dissected by drainages like Little Muddy Creek and Chicken Creek. Settlement is minimal, represented by features like Road Hollow, reflecting a region primarily shaped by its natural hydrology and the high-altitude divide between major river basins. The detailed contour work captures the steep transitions between the ridges and the valley floors of Carter Creek and the forks of Pine Hollow Creek.
