2012 Map of Manuel Gap

About this map

Adobe Town and its high desert surroundings are the focus of this 2012 survey in Sweetwater County. The map details the drainage patterns and intermittent flow of Sand Cr as it meanders through the arid basin. This region is characterized by significant topographic shifts, most notably at Manuel Gap, where the terrain creates a natural passage used by local travel routes. Bureau of Land Management infrastructure is present through BLM Road 4409 and BLM Road 4411, which provide the primary access through this sparsely populated territory. The map illustrates the specialized landscape of southwestern Wyoming, where wide-open spaces are punctuated by specific named landmarks and ephemeral watercourses rather than dense urban centers.
