2015 Map of Dishpan Butte

About this map

Dishpan Butte and the towering escarpment of Beaver Rim dominate this high-elevation landscape in Fremont County. The map details a complex network of ephemeral drainages and vital water sources, including Bear Spring, O'Brien Spring, and Wagon Bed Spring, which have historically served as critical landmarks in this arid environment. The terrain is characterized by dramatic shifts in elevation, evidenced by features such as McTurk Ridge, Prodigy Hill, and the narrow passage at Devils Gap. Movement through the area is primarily defined by Sand Draw Rd, which follows the contours of the landscape past McTurk Draw and Little Sand Draw. These landforms, along with Cedar Rim and Government Slide Draw, illustrate the significant erosional processes shaping the region's geography.
