About this map

Bridger National Forest dominates this Sublette County landscape, where the upper reaches of the Green River snake through a high-elevation mountain environment. The terrain is defined by prominent peaks and ridges, including the massive forms of Big Sheep Mountain, Little Sheep Mountain, and the distinctively named Battleship Mountain. Seasonal drainage patterns are evident through the complex network of creeks like Gypsum Creek, Dago Creek, and Moose Creek, which feed into the primary river systems.

Access into this backcountry region is marked by primitive routes such as Green River Lakes Road and Gypsum Creek Road. The map highlights the high basin topography of the Roaring Fork Basin and the flat meadowland of Gypsum Park. This survey captures the area's geography as it remains focused on forest management and natural drainage, with few permanent structures but numerous named peaks and water bodies that serve as vital landmarks for navigators and local historians.
