1969 Map of Round Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Emigrant Trail tracks and high-desert terrain define this 1969 topographic survey of western Wyoming. The historic route of the westward migration is clearly etched across the landscape, paralleling the Emigrant Creek and Slate Creek drainages. This area in Lincoln County reflects the rugged overland travel conditions of the nineteenth century, with water sources like Mud Spring, Emigrant Spring, and Jenkins Springs serving as critical landmarks for travelers. The map reveals a transition from the elevated Slate Creek Ridge down to the intermittent stream beds of the North Fork Slate Creek and South Fork Slate Creek. Notable for local researchers is the presence of Matthews, a lone named location amidst the draws, and The Old Water Well (Flowing), which highlights the vital importance of groundwater in this arid region south of Round Mountain.
