1983 Map of Cover Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Cover Mountain dominates the high-elevation landscape of this 1983 survey, situated along the county boundary between Park and Fremont Counties. The terrain is defined by a complex network of drainages and dramatic geological features, including the prominent Cap Rock Ridge and its namesake Cap Rock. Waterways such as Currant Creek and Wilson Creek have carved deep paths through the high country, creating a rugged environment of ridges and basins like Flat Top Ridge and Beckham Basin. Evidence of early prospecting and extraction is scattered throughout the area, notably the Mines and various Prospect markings located west of Mack Gulch. These sites point to a history of mineral exploration in a region where travel followed the natural contours of gulches like Horsethief Gulch and Newberry Gulch.
