1978 Map of The Ramshorn

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Absaroka Range peaks and high mountain passes dominate this late-1970s survey of the Wyoming high country. The town of Dubois sits along the Wind River, serving as a gateway to the surrounding wilderness areas, including the Washakie Wilderness and Teton Wilderness. The map illustrates a complex network of hydrological origins, with the headwaters of the Yellowstone River, Shoshone River, and Greybull River all radiating from these central highlands. The Continental Divide carves a jagged path through the western portion of the sheet, separating the drainages of the South Fork Buffalo Fork from the high plateaus. Land management patterns are clearly defined, showing the interface between the Wind River Indian Reservation and several national forests. Notable high-altitude features include Ramshorn Peak, Younts Peak, and the site of Kirwin, illustrating the remote nature of early alpine settlement and mapping.
