1953 Map of Sweetwater Gap

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Continental Divide carves a high path through this 1953 survey, marking the jagged boundary where water begins its long descent toward either the Atlantic or Pacific. This high-altitude landscape is dominated by the Wind River Range, where prominent summits like Wind River Peak and Mt Nystrom overlook a series of glacial basins. The map illustrates a complex hydrological system at the headwaters of the Popo Agie River and Sweetwater River, characterized by clusters of alpine water bodies including Ice Lakes, the Deep Creek Lakes, and the Stough Creek Lakes within the Stough Creek Basin.
