2015 Map of Bridger Lakes

About this map

Bridger National Forest defines the geography of this high-altitude landscape in the Wind River Range. The high-country terrain is punctuated by significant peaks including Guitierrez Peak and Duran Peak, which overlook a network of alpine basins and water bodies. The Continental Divide National Scenic Trail traverses the eastern half of the sheet, providing access to the glacial-carved Titcomb Basin and the expansive Titcomb Lakes. The mapping reveals a complex hydrological system where Fremont Creek and Bridger Creek drain numerous high-elevation lakes such as Island Lake, Seneca Lake, and the uniquely named Sauerkraut Lakes. Strategic mountain passes, including Gunsight Pass, Threlkeld Pass, and Lester Pass, indicate the historic corridors used to navigate this demanding vertical environment, while Photographers Point offers a recognized vantage over the surrounding wilderness.
