About this map

Continental Divide crests through this high mountain terrain where three national forests meet: the Shoshone National Forest, Teton National Forest, and Bridger National Forest. The map centers on the historic Union Pass, a significant geographic nexus where the waters of the S Fork Fish Cr, Salt Cr, and Strawberry Cr begin their descents toward different drainages. This high-altitude landscape is characterized by open meadows like Fish Creek Park and Ryan Park, interspersed with prominent landforms such as Piñon Ridge.

Tracing the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail reveals the remote nature of the Fremont and Sublette county line during the early 21st century. High-elevation water bodies like Lake of the Woods provide specific landmarks for those studying the hydrology and recreational access of the Wind River Range. Primitive routes such as Lake of the Woods Rd and Roaring Fork Rd offer insight into the limited infrastructure maintained within these protected forest lands.
