About this map

Bridger National Forest dominates this Sublette County landscape, where high-altitude ridges and deep draws define the topography. The terrain rises sharply to Prospect Peak and Horse Mountain, while prominent landmarks like Jewett Pinnacle and Beaver Ridge break the horizon. This area is characterized by a complex drainage system feeding into the Green River basin, with S Horse Creek and N Horse Creek carving through the central mountain blocks.

A network of old tracks and modern access roads provides passage through the wilderness. The route labeled Old Indian winds north-to-south, intersecting with Pass Creek and Cole Creek. This intersection of historic pathways and remote natural features, such as Horse Pasture Draw, highlights the region's long-standing use for both transit and livestock grazing. In the northeast, Daniel Merna Rd and Dry Beaver Rd offer access toward the more developed valley floors outside the forest boundary.
