1970 Map of Flat Top Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Flat Top Mountain dominates this portion of Carbon County, rising above a landscape defined by seasonal drainages and livestock routes. This 1970 field check documents a high-desert environment where water sources like Patterson Springs and the Pocket Reservoir were critical for regional ranching operations. The presence of the Shell Creek Stock Trail and Hangout Road indicates the continued importance of movement through the high country, connecting the various prongs of Red Creek and North Fork Cottonwood Creek. Scattered Drill Hole markings suggest early geological exploration or mineral assessment in the basins surrounding Hangout Ridge. This survey provides a clear view of the complex topography between North Flat Top and East Flat Top before modern development altered the remote terrain of southern Wyoming.
