2012 Map of Coal Creek

About this map

Fontenelle Forest serves as a central anchor for this high-country landscape in Lincoln County, where complex drainage networks define the terrain. The hydrological pattern is anchored by the winding course of Fontenelle Cr, which is joined by numerous tributaries including Bear Trap Cr, Roaring Cr, and Campfire Cr. These waterways carve through the high elevations of Mahogany Ridge and Indian Ridge, creating a rugged topography of basins and gulches. Evidence of 21st-century access is limited to a few established thoroughfares like La Barge Creek Rd and Little Fall Creek Rd. Significant geological and landform markers like Pomeroy Basin and Bear Gulch illustrate the typical western Wyoming high-desert and mountain transition, providing specific points of reference for those tracking land use and natural landmarks in the region.
