Uinta County lies in a hilly country just north of the Uinta Mountains in the southwest corner of Wyoming. Rivers flowing north from the mountians have formed valleys where towns and farmlands are located. Most of the rest of the area is covered with sagebrush.
Fort Bridger, the oldest settlement in the county, was an important trading post on the Oregon Trail, located in a serene valley on the Black's Fork River. It was originally built by Jim Bridger in 1842. Evanston was settled on 1868 in the Bear River valley by workers on the Union Pacific Railroad.
The population of the county, as of 2000, was 19,742, a large portion of whom live in Evanston.
