1965 Map of Sulphur Creek Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Union Pacific rail lines dominate this landscape in Uinta County, Wyoming, threading through the high terrain via the Aspen Tunnel and passing the industrial settlement at Altamont. The topography is defined by prominent elevations such as Knight Ridge and the uniquely named Oyster Shell Ridge, which overlook the waters of the Sulphur Creek Reservoir. The presence of the Emigrant Trail weaving through the ridges offers a glimpse into the historic westward movement that preceded the heavy industrial development of the region.
