About this map

South Fork Mtn and Granny Peak dominate this high-elevation landscape of Lincoln County, where the complex drainage systems of the Green River basin begin to take shape. The southern portion of the map is defined by the Wright Divide and the Pomeroy Basin, illustrating a high-altitude geography where water flows through numerous creeks such as Fontenelle Cr, Roney Cr, and Beaver Dam Cr. To the west, the Philip Reservoir provides a primary point of water storage amidst the ridgelines.

A network of local roads and recreational tracks, including Kovach Dugway and Blue Jay Way, indicates modern land use for ranching and resource access. Of significant historical interest is the presence of the Emigrant Trl near Rocky Gap at the southern boundary, marking the path of western migration through the Wyoming range. The terrain transitions from the steep walls of Boney Canyon to the eastern flats of the Mud Lakes, showcasing a diverse mountain environment.
