2000 Map of Cooke City
USGS Topo · Published 2005About this map
Cooke City sits at the heart of this high-elevation mountain terrain at the dawn of the millennium, surrounded by the overlapping boundaries of the Gallatin National Forest, Custer National Forest, and Shoshone National Forest. This mapping reflects a landscape shaped by historical mining and modern conservation, where high-country routes lead to numerous prospects and an open pit mine near Henderson Mountain. The rugged transition from the Absaroka - Beartooth Wilderness to the northern gate of Yellowstone is marked by landmarks like Cooke City Amphitheater and Soda Butte. Water systems define the geography, from the Clarks Fork Yellowstone River to remote basins holding Lady of the Lake and Goose Lake. Local history is anchored by the small Cem and named passes such as Lulu Pass and Daisy Pass, which historically served the mineral-rich peaks.
