1982 Map of Fontenelle Reservoir

About this map

The Fontenelle Reservoir and the Green River anchor the eastern landscape of this early 1980s Western Wyoming survey, where high desert plateaus meet the foothills of the Bridger National Forest. Historically significant pathways cross this terrain, most notably the Emigrant Trail and the Sublette Cutoff, tracing the routes of 19th-century westward expansion through what is now Lincoln and Sublette counties. Small settlements and industrial outposts like La Barge and Dry Piney Camp dot the area, reflecting the region's reliance on river access and mineral resources.
