1992 Map of Morgan

About this map

Medicine Bow National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in the early 1990s, where the headwaters of several major waterways converge near the Carbon Co Albany Co line. The settlement of Morgan sits near the northeastern boundary, overshadowed by the prominence of Morgan Hill. The terrain is defined by a series of steep drainages, including Rock Creek and the North Fork Laramie River, which originate from alpine sources like Crater Lake and Sevenmile Lake. This area was a focal point for resource management and backcountry access, as evidenced by the network of trails and the Sand Lake Road leading toward Sand Lake. The map details the transition from high ridgelines such as Rock Creek Ridge to protected basins like Clark Park, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Snowy Range foothills.
