2024 Map of Big Ice Cave

About this map

Custer National Forest encompasses the rugged highlands of Carbon and Big Horn Counties, where the Pryor Mountains rise above a landscape defined by deep drainages and limestone plateaus. This recent topographic record illustrates the intricate network of primitive routes and specialized trails that provide access to the high country, including the Shriver Peak Road Trl and the Crater Ice Cave Trl. The map details a wilderness environment punctuated by isolated water sources such as Trappers Cabin Spring and Teples Spring, which are essential landmarks in this arid upland. High-altitude features like Big Pryor Mtn and Shriver Peak overlook complex geological formations such as Tibbs Hollow and Mill Hollow, reflecting the area's value for resource management and backcountry recreation.
