1981 Map of Pinedale

Settlement is concentrated along the river systems, particularly around Pinedale and Cora, where the New Fork River and Pine Creek emerge from the mountains. This map documents a landscape defined by the convergence of the Wind River Indian Reservation with vast tracts of the Bridger National Forest. The presence of massive water bodies like Fremont Lake and Boulder Lake highlights the region's importance as a glacial watershed at the headwaters of the Big Sandy River.
