2021 Map of Sherman Mountains East

About this map

Sherman Mountains define the high-elevation landscape of this region within the Medicine Bow National Forest. The map captures a complex network of forest roads and trails that navigate a series of granite formations and peaks, including Turtle Rock and Twin Mtn. This area serves as a critical watershed for the high plains, with the headwaters of numerous streams such as Middle Crow Cr, S Crow Cr, and Lone Tree Cr flowing eastward from the continental divide. The infrastructure revealed, from the Vedauwoo Glen Rd to the historic Buford Trl, illustrates the modern management and recreational use of these public lands. Significant summits like Egbert Hill, Reynolds Hill, and Markley Hill provide distinct vertical relief across the quadrangle, which straddles the border between Albany and Laramie Counties.
