About this map

Bridger National Forest dominates this landscape in Sublette County, defined by a complex network of high-elevation drainages and distinct geological landmarks. The topography is anchored by notable summits such as Bald Mtn and Star Hill, while unique hydrological features like the Apple Green Geyser near Edwards Cr provide evidence of geothermal activity. The area is intersected by several watercourses including Red Castle Cr, Whiskey Cr, and the various branches of Muddy Creek.

Local navigation and land use are centered around primitive routes like the Round Hill Path and Red Canyon Rd, which cross through named depressions such as Dutch Dans Gulch and Alcohol Draw. The eastern portion of the map transitions into the stark geography of Red Canyon, illustrating the shift from timbered forest land to open Wyoming basin terrain. This survey provides a look at the remote interior of the Wyoming Range and its persistent system of backcountry trails and resource management roads.
