1958 Map of Boars Tusk

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Boars Tusk rises as a prominent volcanic landmark amidst the shifting sands of the Wyoming high desert, south of the Steamboat Rim. This 1958 survey captures a landscape of intense geological variety, where the Continental Divide snakes through the volcanic Leucite Hills and the extensive Sand Dunes of the north. Settlement is sparse and largely focused on remote outposts like the Lewis Ranch (site), Houghton Ranch, and Cookston Ranch, illustrating the persistent ranching efforts in this arid environment.
