1968 Map of Fourmile Knoll

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Emigrant Trail traverses the arid landscape of Sweetwater County in this late 1960s survey, marking a corridor of historical westward movement. The map highlights the Sublette Cutoff, a vital branch for travelers seeking a more direct route through the High Desert. This segment of the trail system is accompanied by the Lincoln Sweetwater Road, showing the evolution of primitive paths into established thoroughfares. The terrain is defined by the broad expanse of Sublettes Flat and the winding course of Simpson Gulch. Standing as a prominent navigational landmark in the southern portion of the sheet is Fourmile Knoll, which provides a clear point of reference in an otherwise vast and open topography of alkaline flats and drainage basins.
