About this map

The Continental Divide winds through the heart of this high-altitude landscape, forming a natural boundary between Fremont and Sublette counties. Surveyed in the late 1930s, this portion of the Washakie National Forest is defined by a dense network of peaks and glacial basins, including Mt Bonneville, Mt Geikie, and Mt Lander. While the terrain is dominated by summits like Wolverine Peak and Mt Washakie, evidence of human activity is anchored to the remote backcountry infrastructure of the era. The South Fork Guard Sta and the John Day Cabin represent the sparse but vital outposts for forest management and local cattle operations, such as Cow Camp. A complex system of historical pathways, including the Washakie Trail, Halls Trail, and Pipestone Trail, provided the only access through steep passes like Hailey Pass and Washakie Pass, connecting isolated water bodies like Raft Lake and Lake Kagevah across the divide.
