1952 Map of Bob Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The high alpine Divide country of the Wind River Indian Reservation and Shoshone National Forest is defined here by its intricate glacial hydrology and surveying landmarks. In the early 1950s, the Meadow Creek Lookout Tower stood on the summit of Bold Mountain, serving as a critical fire watch point for the surrounding timber. The landscape transitions from the massive Kirkland Mountains down to a cluster of remote sub-alpine basins, where drainage systems like Bull Lake Creek and the various forks of Willow Creek originate. The presence of Indian Pass and high-altitude water bodies such as Crater Lake, Big Milky Lake, and Kirkland Lake illustrates the difficult terrain that historically separated these wilderness tracts. This 1952 record highlights the intersection of forest management and tribal land boundaries before modern development changed the character of backcountry access.
