1961 Map of Morgan

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Morgan serves as a lone-named settlement amidst the high-altitude hydrology of the Medicine Bow National Forest. The landscape is defined by the Rock Creek Ridge and the complex drainage systems of the Middle Fork Rock Creek, South Fork Rock Creek, and the headwaters of the North Fork Little Laramie River. A series of mountain water bodies, including Firebox Lake, Sevenmile Lake, and Crater Lake, are connected by a Foot Trail that navigates the difficult terrain between Rock Creek Point and Cooper Hill. The map also captures the political boundary between Carbon and Albany counties, which cuts through this wilderness of glacial lakes and multi-forked streams. The density of named creeks and lakes, such as North Fork Mill Creek and North Twin Lakes, highlights an area intensely focused on water resource management and recreation during the mid-twentieth century.
