2012 Map of Square Top

About this map

The high desert landscape of Square Top in Sublette County defines this portion of the Wyoming basins, where water management is the primary driver of human modification. Numerous catchments such as Desert Reservoir Number 1, Lost Reservoir, and Tibbals Reservoir dot the arid terrain, highlighting the region's reliance on seasonal runoff and managed springs like Antelope Spring. The map documents a significant intersection of historical and modern transit, featuring the historic path of the Emigrant Trl alongside contemporary routes like The Rim Rd. Waterways including Muddy Cr and S Muddy Cr meander through the draws, feeding into local reservoirs such as Square Top Reservoir Number 6 and Mayo Reservoir. This 2012 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey preserves the specific placement of these vital water sources and trails within a largely uninhabited ranching or grazing territory.
