Settlement patterns follow the mountain flanks and rail corridors, from the river town of Encampment to the Union Pacific Railroad stop at Foxpark. Large-scale topographic features like Medicine Bow Peak and the Savage Run Wilderness illustrate the transition from valley ranching to high alpine terrain. Transportation routes such as Wyoming 130 and Wyoming 70 provide the primary connections through these mountain passes, linking the timber and mining communities of Carbon and Albany Counties.
