Cooke City sits at the heart of this high-elevation landscape, positioned where the Gallatin National Forest, Custer National Forest, and Shoshone National Forest converge near the border of Yellowstone National Park. The map reveals an area defined by its legacy of mineral exploration, with numerous prospects, an adit, and several open pit mines scattered across the slopes of Henderson Mountain and Miller Mountain. This concentration of mining features suggests the intensive industrial efforts once common in this alpine environment before the designation of the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness.
