About this map

The Bear River meanders extensively through this high-country landscape, its tight oxbows defining the geography of Lincoln County near the Wyoming-Utah border. The settlement of Leefe sits near the eastern edge of the quadrangle, while Sage Creek Junction serves as a navigational point in the southwest. This area is heavily defined by its water resources, with numerous named springs and creeks feeding into the larger river system.

Water management and ranching infrastructure are evident through features like Sixmile Reservoir and a network of rural roads such as Sixmile Creek Rd, Manhead Rd, and Mine Rd. Named landmarks such as McKinnon Spring and Sucker Spring highlight the critical role of reliable water sources in this arid high-plains environment. The map details the confluence of several tributaries, including Rabbit Cr and Twin Cr, illustrating how the terrain directs the flow of the upper Bear River drainage.
