1960 Map of Bull Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Lost Soldier Divide dominates the high ground of the Wyoming high desert, marking a significant topographic boundary along the border of Sweetwater and Carbon counties. This 1960 field-checked survey reveals an arid landscape managed for water storage and mineral potential, documented as part of the Department of the Interior's Missouri River Basin development program. The reliance on water management in this dry environment is evident in the presence of the Upper Water Stewart Creek Reservoir and Lower Water Stewart Creek Reservoir, both situated along the drainage of Stewart Creek. Named water sources like Bull Springs and Coyote Spring serve as critical landmarks below the steep elevation changes of Bull Springs Rim and Coyote Springs Rim. While the terrain remains largely open, a singular Drill Hole and a prominent Pipeline corridor indicate mid-century industrial activity and resource exploration within the basin.
