2012 Map of High Point

About this map

High Point and Sugar Loaf define the high ground of this Carbon County landscape, where the terrain is marked by the subtle drainages and intermittent water sources characteristic of the Wyoming high desert. The 2012 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents a region primarily defined by land management and natural resources rather than dense settlement. Coal Bank Spring provides a rare named water point in the eastern portion of the quadrangle, likely serving as a critical waypoint for local land use. Transport through this open country is facilitated by 8 Mile Lake Rd, which cuts across the central portion of the map, connecting the various topographical features. The map illustrates the quiet isolation of the Wyoming interior, where elevation points like Sugar Loaf are the primary landmarks for navigation.
