1969 Map of Temple Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Continental Divide crests along the eastern edge of this Wyoming high-country survey, where the Shoshone National Forest meets the Bridger National Forest. The landscape is dominated by granite spires and glacial basins, anchored by Temple Peak and Wind River Peak. A network of pack trails facilitates travel through the Bridger Wilderness, connecting remote water bodies like Big Sandy Lake, Black Joe Lake, and Deep Lake. The hydrography is defined by the headwaters of the Big Sandy River, which gathers from numerous alpine tributaries including North Temple Creek and South Temple Creek. In the lower elevations, the terrain softens into Sedgewick Meadows and the distinctive landmark known as Crows Nest. The map reveals a wild, unroaded environment where traditional surveying relied heavily on aerial photogrammetry to document the steep relief between Bunion Mountain and Independent Mountain.
