2017 Map of Dead Indian Peak

About this map

Shoshone National Forest contains the high-elevation terrain of the Absaroka Range, where drainage patterns define the wilderness character of the region. This 2017 study illustrates a network of backcountry routes, including the Trout Peak Trail and Big Cr Trail, which navigate the steep elevations between Dead Indian Peak and Trout Peak. The area is marked by significant topographical features such as the precipice known as The Wall and the dramatic Big Creek Falls. Waterways like Dead Indian Cr and Trout Cr carve through the landscape, illustrating the natural water management systems of this protected forest land before they reach the lower valleys of Park County.
