1953 Map of Mount Arter

About this map

The Wind River Indian Reservation meets the Shoshone National Forest in this high-altitude landscape, where the North Popo Agie River carves through deep canyons and basins. The terrain is marked by dramatic elevation changes, climbing from the riverbanks up to the summit of Mount Arter and the prominent Suicide Point. Early settlement patterns are visible through isolated outposts like the Pine Bar Ranch and Hart Ranch near the reservation boundary, alongside the Farlow Homestead situated south of Mormon Basin. These small holdings represent the persistence of ranching families in a landscape otherwise dominated by federal and tribal lands. Multiple pack trails connect these remote sites, crossing through high passes like Cony Pass and Cyclone Pass, which were essential for navigating the mountain ridges before modern road development.
