1940 Map of Savery

About this map

Savery and the Slater community anchor the southern edge of this 1940 survey, where the Snake River and Little Snake River meet at the Wyoming-Colorado border. This high-altitude landscape is dominated by the Continental Divide, which snakes through the Medicine Bow National Forest. The map documents a period when rural education and forest management were critical to local life, evidenced by the presence of Ketchum Sch, Browns Hill Sch, and several remote outposts like Jack Creek Ranger Sta and Rambler Ranger Sta. Significant topographical landmarks such as Green Ridge and Brown s Hill provide a window into the cattle-ranching and timber heritage of Carbon County. Water sources like Savery Creek and Sage Creek Basin show the complex drainage patterns of the high country, while the inclusion of Tullis further north marks a vanished footprint of earlier settlement.
