1961 Map of Pine Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Pine Hill rises as a central topographic landmark in this high-altitude landscape of Carbon County, Wyoming. The terrain is defined by the eastern reaches of the Shirley Mountains and the distinct depression of the Little Basin. Water sources are critical here, evidenced by the numerous named drainages such as Muddy Creek, Sullivan Creek, and Difficulty Creek, along with isolated water points like Shirley Springs and Little Rock Creek Spring. Settlement is sparse and focused on ranching operations, with Potter Ranch providing a primary human footprint on the land. An intriguing historical marker is The Chimneys (Site), suggesting a former structural presence in an otherwise open range. The map reveals the intricate network of drainage and ridge-lines that dictated the placement of ranch infrastructure and trails in this part of the Wyoming interior during the mid-twentieth century.
