About this map

Yellowstone National Park terrain defines this high-altitude landscape, dominated by the peaks of the Washburn Range. At the heart of the map stands Cook Peak, surrounded by a complex network of alpine drainages including Blacktail Deer Cr, Lupine Cr, and Lava Cr. The topographic detail illustrates the divide between these northward-flowing waters and the headwaters of the Gibbon River to the south.

Wilderness recreation and foot travel are evidenced by the Howard Eaton-Cascade Lake Trail and the Cascade Lake Trail, which provide access to secluded water bodies like Grebe Lake and Cascade Lake. The map also traces the distinct geologic formations of Arrow Canyon and its seasonal drainages, alongside prominent summits such as Folsom Peak and Observation Peak, offering a comprehensive look at this protected backcountry environment in the early twenty-first century.
