2012 Map of Indian Butte

About this map

Indian Butte rises above this high-desert landscape in Fremont County, where a network of seasonal water sources and rural roads defines the terrain. The northwestern corner of the map is marked by the course of the Wind River, while the surrounding plateaus are punctuated by vital water points including Horsethief Springs, Gerton Spring, Finley Spring, and Drip Spring. These groundwater features historically served as essential landmarks for movement across this arid region. The local infrastructure is sparse, characterized primarily by Nebo Rd and a series of unnamed tracks that navigate the expansive open country. This 2012 survey illustrates a landscape of minimal human development, focusing instead on the topographic relief and the natural hydrography that has shaped ranching and transit patterns in the area.
