2017 Map of Point of Rocks
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Point of Rocks serves as a central landmark in this high-desert portion of Sweetwater County, where modern infrastructure meets historic western pathways. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Bitter Cr and the presence of the Jim Bridger Reservoir to the north. A significant historical element is the Overland Trl, which traces a path through the territory south of the modern interstate corridor, following the natural contours near Shiprock. The terrain is characterized by sharp draws and washes, including Coon Draw and Deadman Wash, illustrating the drainage patterns that have shaped the region. Several access routes, such as Nine Mile Rd and various service roads, connect the isolated geographic features and industrial reservoir to the settlement at the rocky point.
