1968 Map of Twelvemile Knoll

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The high-desert landscape of Sweetwater County is marked by a deep historical legacy of westward migration, clearly visible on this 1968 survey. The Emigrant Trail traverses the northern section of the map, specifically showing the Sublette Cutoff, a vital route used by pioneers to bypass the Green River crossing and shave distance off the Oregon and California Trails. This historic path runs parallel to the modern Lincoln Sweetwater Road, illustrating the persistence of transportation corridors through this arid terrain.
