2021 Map of Eagle Creek

About this map

The Absaroka Range defines this high-elevation landscape within the Shoshone National Forest. This terrain is characterized by deep drainages and sharp ridgelines, where the North Fork Shoshone River cuts through the northern section of the map. Central to the geography is the extensive Eagle Cr drainage, which flows through the Eagle Creek Meadows and past Paradise Valley. The map detail reveals a primitive transportation network consisting of several established routes, including the Eagle Creek Trl, Kitty Cr Trl, and Morman Cr Trl. These trails follow the natural contours of the creeks, such as Kitty Cr and Middle Cr, providing the only structured access through this wilderness area. The land remains largely undeveloped, preserving a backcountry environment focused on the seasonal hydrology of features like Cloudburst Cr and Grinnell Cr.
