2012 Map of Fontenelle

About this map

Green River flows through this southwestern Wyoming landscape, marking a critical corridor for both historic passage and modern industry. The small settlement of Fontenelle is situated near the riverbanks, serving as a focal point in an area defined by wide basins and significant terrain features like Dodge Rim and Slate Creek Butte. The map highlights a layered transportation history, where the ancient path of the Emigrant Trl is intersected by contemporary infrastructure such as Exxon Plant Rd. This intersection illustrates the evolution of the land from a pioneer thoroughfare to a site of energy production. Drainage systems including Slate Cr and Shute Cr feed into the primary river valley, while a network of rural routes like Lower Farson Cutoff Rd connects this high-desert region to the broader county.
