1966 Map of Fremont Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Fremont Pass serves as a high-altitude crossing point in this mid-1960s survey of the high plateau country along the boundary of Iron and Garfield Counties. The landscape is defined by its complex network of seasonal water sources and steep drainage systems, including Brady Creek and Echard Creek, which flow through the expansive Dog Valley. High-elevation infrastructure is limited, though the Radio Facility Bear stands prominently on a ridge in the southwestern portion of the sheet. Surveyors documented a remote wilderness environment where movement was largely restricted to a Jeep Trail or Pack Trail. Small alpine water bodies like Coyote Lake and Rock Pond are scattered among named features such as Boo Boy Hill and the Granite Knolls, suggesting a region primarily used for seasonal grazing or limited resource exploration, evidenced by a solitary Prospect near Granite Valley.
