The Green and New Fork Rivers converge just south of Highway 351 northeast of Big Piney. The river crossings were major challenges to the emigrants on the Lander-Cut-off of the Oregon Trail in the mid-1800s. View looking west. The New Fork River is in the foreground, Green River is further back. Big Piney is in the distance on the far left. The Wyoming Range is in the distant background. |
