About this map

Yellowstone National Park and the high elevations of the Shoshone National Forest converge on this 1980s topographic record. The landscape is dominated by the steep, sharp profiles of the Absaroka Range, including Cathedral Peak and Pyramid Peak, which rise above a network of drainages such as Mist Creek and Bear Creek. A lengthy Pack Trail serves as the primary artery through the North Absaroka Wilderness, connecting the lower valleys to high points like Cody Peak near the southern boundary. This map captures the territory before modern recreational shifts, emphasizing the isolation of Frost Lake and the difficult approaches to Silvertip Peak. The absence of roads underscores the region's character as a strictly preserved wilderness area where traditional trail systems remain the only way to navigate the high-country terrain.
