1965 Map of Deer Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Bridger National Forest dominates this mid-1960s landscape, where the Greys River carves a deep valley between high ridges. The map reveals a remote mountainous terrain managed for both recreation and forestry, evidenced by sites like the Deer Creek Guard Station and established campsites such as Lynx Creek Campground and Murphy Creek Campground. The drainage system is remarkably intricate, with numerous tributaries including Weiner Creek, Dead Dog Creek, and Porcupine Creek feeding into the main river channel. High-altitude features like the Star Peaks and Lost Lake define the western boundary, while the Stewart Trail and various pack trails suggest a landscape primarily accessible by foot or horseback during this era. The concentration of named lakes, such as the Murphy Lakes, and the convergence of the Little Greys River indicate a well-watered wilderness area critical to regional geography.
