1952 Map of Wise Flat

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The Wind River Indian Reservation dominates this 1952 topographic study, showing a landscape defined by its complex drainage systems and high-desert terrain. In the northern reaches, Middle Fork Sage Creek and the South Fork Sage Creek converge, flowing past the prominent elevation of Norkok Butte. The central portion of the sheet is characterized by the expansive, high bench of Wise Flat, which sits above the deep incisions of Norkok Creek and Little Norkok Creek. To the south, the terrain descends toward the significant waterways of the North Fork Little Wind River and the South Fork Little Wind River. These river valleys, joined by tributaries like Timmoco Creek, represent the primary water resources for the area. A lone Telephone Line cutting through the reservation provides a rare trace of mid-century infrastructure in this otherwise sparsely developed region of Fremont County.
