1967 Map of Devils Hole Creek

About this map

Bridger National Forest dominates this section of the Wyoming backcountry, defined by the high, parallel crests of Commissary Ridge and Indian Ridge. Mapped in the mid-1960s, the terrain is shaped by an intricate network of drainage basins, including Devils Hole Creek and Little Indian Creek. The landscape shows very little human footprint beyond essential access, centered on Hams Fork Campground and a system of pack trails and jeep trails used for forest management or recreation. Notable high-altitude features like Indian Mountain and Devils Hole Lakes underscore the elevation, while open areas like Red Park provide breaks in the wooded drainages. This survey documents the headwaters of several critical systems, such as South Fork Fontenelle Creek and the Fork Hams Fork, before more modern development or road expansion in the region.
