About this map

Buffalo Lake serves as a quiet central point in this high-altitude landscape on the Idaho-Wyoming border. This 2011 survey illustrates a wilderness defined by its complex drainage network, where Boundary Creek and Cascade Creek flow through the eastern reaches while the headwaters of Robinson Creek and Little Robinson Creek drain the southern slopes. The topography is anchored by Snow Creek Butte in the southwest, a significant landmark overlooking the various forks of the region's mountain streams.

Transportation is minimal, limited to the primitive route of Natl Forest Develop Road 108 Trl, indicating a remote area largely untouched by modern development. This map provides researchers with a clear view of the natural water systems before they merge into larger river basins, documenting the exact placement of North Fork Partridge Creek and South Fork Split Creek in the Teton County backcountry.
