About this map

Clouds Home Peak and Kingfisher Peak anchor this high-altitude landscape in Park County, where the drainage patterns of the Absaroka Range define the terrain. The hydrological network is dominated by Ishawooa Cr and Lapalli Cr, which carve through the high country alongside Seoria Cr and Deer Cr. The map reveals a wilderness largely devoid of modern development, save for the presence of 6wx RD in the southeast corner.

Distinctive geological formations such as Horses Head and Gobblers Knob provide significant navigation landmarks for those studying the physical geography of this part of Wyoming. Large-scale features like Ishawooa Mesa and the drainage of Cut Coulee highlight a landscape shaped by erosional forces, offering a clear view of the region's topography before more recent environmental shifts. This survey captures the remote character of the area as it stood in the early 21st century.
