1948 Map of Sherman Mountains

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Medicine Bow National Forest dominates this Wyoming landscape, where the high-altitude terrain of the Sherman Mountains meets the infrastructure of the Union Pacific railroad. The map documents a rugged transition where early twentieth-century ranching and military presence converge. Evidence of the region's ranching heritage is visible in the numerous family holdings, such as K P Ranch (Lindstroms Ranch) and Lady Heart 9 Ranch, which are interspersed between granite outcrops like Turtle Rock and the recreation areas at Vedauwoo Glen.
