1962 Map of Bell Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The high country along the border of Lincoln and Uinta counties is defined by a series of branching drainages that flow into the Green River basin. This early 1960s survey documents a landscape focused on ranching and early mineral exploration, evidenced by the Hayward Place in the northeast and a scattered Drill Hole in the south. The terrain is dominated by the prominent Bell Butte, which serves as a central landmark between the complex headwaters of Sheep Creek and its various tributaries, including the North Fork, Middle Fork, and South Fork. These waterways, along with Carter Creek and Bell Creek, illustrate the seasonal water flow patterns critical to livestock grazing in this part of Wyoming. The map also captures several elevation markers such as BM 7670 and BM 7852, providing precise data for the high ridges overlooking Ryckman Creek at the southern margin.
