1962 Map of Sawtooth Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Bear River Divide dominates this high-altitude landscape along the border of Lincoln and Uinta Counties, where complex ridgelines and drainages define the high desert topography of southwest Wyoming. The 1962 data, revised in the late 1970s, reveals a land shaped by water and elevation, with numerous unnamed Springs feeding arterial waterways such as Alkali Creek and Cottonwood Creek. Human presence is minimal and practical, represented by a network of Jeep Trails and a Pack Trail that navigate the slopes near Sawtooth Mtn and The Pinnacle. A single Mine located in the northeast corner of the quadrangle points to the region's mineral interests, while prominent features like The Hogback and the Session Mountains illustrate the folding geology of the area. This record provides a clear view of the backcountry as it existed before modern development, marking the transition from the Bear River valley into the surrounding high peaks.
