2021 Map of South Fork Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

South Fork Mountain and the high ridges of Lincoln County define this landscape along the eastern edge of the Overthrust Belt. The map reveals a high-altitude terrain marked by the prominent north-south spine of Commissary Ridge and the western slopes of Oyster Ridge. Water management in this arid environment is evident through features like the Philip Reservoir and various seasonal drainages such as Sheep Dip Creek and Beaver Dam Creek. A notable historical trace appears in the southeast corner with the Emigrant Trail, crossing through the Pomeroy Basin near the Wright Divide. This corridor highlights the region's importance for transcontinental travel long before the development of local ranching infrastructure like the Spring Canyon Ranch and the network of access roads serving the interior canyons.
