2021 Map of Whiskey Buttes

About this map

The Brigham Young 1847 trail route marks the lower reaches of this Sweetwater County landscape, preserving the historical corridor used during the westward migration. The terrain is characterized by the prominent elevation of the Whiskey Buttes and the adjacent Whiskey Basin, which together define the high desert topography. This modern 2021 survey documents a sparsely settled region where seasonal drainage patterns like the S Fork Shute Cr and Shute Cr feed into the broader West Otterson Wash. The absence of developed towns emphasizes a landscape dedicated to open range and historical transit routes, making it a significant point of interest for those tracing the exact path of mid-19th-century pioneer trails through Wyoming.
