1980 Map of Carter Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Shoshone National Forest and Teton National Forest dominate this high-elevation landscape, where the North Fork Shoshone River flows into the expansive Buffalo Bill Reservoir. The 1980 map data illustrates the transition from the high ridges of Wapiti Ridge and Carter Mountain down to the drainage basins of the Greybull River and Wood River. Local landmarks such as the Ranger Sta and various Gaging Sta placements indicate the managed nature of these protected lands. Near the eastern edge, an Oil Field and Gravel Pit suggest localized industrial activity amidst the terrain. The presence of settlements like Wapiti and Irma near the reservoir highlights the primary corridors of travel along U S 14 16 20, providing a record of the region's human geography before modern development expanded around the reservoir's shores.
