About this map

The small settlement of Sage occupies a central position in this 1980s landscape, serving as a junction point where the local transportation corridor follows the path of Twin Creek. The surrounding Lincoln County terrain is defined by the prominent heights of Boulder Ridge and Sillem Ridge, which hem in the drainage basins of Collett Creek and Bulldog Hollow.

Resource management and utility infrastructure are evident throughout the quadrangle, notably with the Twin Creek Ditch and a Gaging Station marking human intervention in the high desert hydrology. The map further documents the industrial footprint of the mid-1980s via a prominent pipeline and transmission line that traverse the area near Leefe, reflecting the region's role as a conduit for energy and water in western Wyoming. Local features such as Gooseberry Spring and Bridger Fork provide specific points of reference for those tracing historical land use or family connections to this high-country drainage system.
