About this map

Dunrud Peak serves as a prominent landmark in this high-elevation region of Wyoming, where the headwaters of major river systems begin their descent. The landscape is defined by a series of significant mountain crossings, including Bear Creek Pass, East Fork Pass, and Coal Chute Pass, which trace the natural movement patterns through the Absaroka Range. These passes connect the drainages of the Wood River system in the north with the E Fork Wind River to the south.

Several distinct summits such as Mount Sniffel, Mineral Mountain, and Bald Mountain provide a topographic profile of the eastern edge of the wilderness. To the southwest, the singular formation of Steamboat Rock stands near the river forks. This 2012 survey illustrates the hydrological complexity of the area, featuring the convergence of the Middle Fork Wood River, S Fork Wood River, and E Fork E Fork Wind River.
