1963 Map of Pittman Well

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Emigrant Trail cuts through this high desert landscape of Sweetwater County, marking a corridor of historical travel across the Wyoming plains. The Big Sandy River meanders through the northwest, while the rest of the terrain is defined by dry washes and erosion-carved features like Stagecoach Draw and Starvation Wash. This 1963 survey captures a rural landscape where water is the primary concern, evidenced by the named Pittman Well located near Jensen Wash. The geography is stark, transitioning into the Bad Lands and the prominent Blue Rim in the southern sections. Notable landmarks like the Mormon Knotts provide vertical relief in an area primarily used for grazing and transit, crisscrossed by a network of Jeep Trails that suggest the difficulty of modern navigation through this part of the state.
