2012 Map of Fremont Peak North

About this map

Mount Sacagawea and the surrounding high-altitude terrain of the Wind River Range define this alpine landscape, where massive ice fields and sharp granite summits congregate. The hydrology is dominated by an extensive glacial system, including the Sacagawea Glacier, Lower Fremont Glacier, and Upper Fremont Glacier, which feed high-mountain waters like Klondike Lake and the various branches of Dinwoody Cr. High-elevation crossings such as Indian Pass, Backpackers Pass, and Blaurock Pass provide passage between the drainage basins of Dry Cr and N Fork Bull Lake Cr. Significant landmarks like Chimney Rock and Turret Peak rise above the meadows and moraines, while Horse Ridge and Dry Creek Ridge provide prominent natural boundaries in this 2012 survey. The map details the intricate network of meltwater streams and seasonal snowfields that characterize one of the most glaciated regions in the American West.
