2012 Map of Gobblers Knob

About this map

The historical Emigrant Trl cuts across the northern landscape of Sublette County, marking a legacy of westward expansion through this high desert region. In this early twenty-first-century view, the arid terrain is defined by the prominent Blue Rim and the geological elevation of Gobblers Knob. The scarcity of water in this environment is evident through a network of man-made catchments, including Cacklin Lou Reservoir and Sand Draw Reservoir Number 4, which support the local ranching and land management efforts. Access through the area is maintained by rugged routes such as Blue Rim Rd and BLM 5410, while Alkali Cr drains the northern reaches. The presence of Iron Mountain and The Rocks underscores the literal stone and soil character of this corner of Wyoming, preserved here before further modern development.
