1991 Map of Fremont Peak South

About this map

The Continental Divide serves as the backbone of this high-altitude landscape, carving a boundary between the Shoshone National Forest and Bridger-Teton National Forest. Large ice masses, including the Bull Lake Glacier and Knife Point Glacier, cling to the northeast slopes of the Wind River Range, illustrating the glacial processes that have shaped these peaks. This 1991 field-checked survey highlights a transition into protected lands, with the Fitzpatrick Wilderness and Bridger Wilderness dominating the topography. Below the jagged summits of Knife Point Mountain and Harrower Peak, an intricate network of alpine water bodies like Wall Lake and Golden Lake feeds into the headwaters of Pole Creek and the Middle Fork Bull Lake Creek. Long-distance paths, notably the Fremont Trail and Highline Trail, provide the primary human access through this roadless high country, crossing strategic points such as Indian Pass and Angel Pass.
