1991 Map of Fall Creek

About this map

Majo Ranch sits along the South Fork Shoshone River in this high-altitude corner of Northwest Wyoming, surveyed in 1991. The landscape is defined by the massive overlapping boundaries of the Shoshone National Forest, Teton National Forest, and the Washakie Wilderness. A notable point of historical industrial interest is the Sinkingwater Mining Region, located near the drainage of Needle Creek. This remote area relies on a network of watercourses like Cabin Creek and Silver Creek that carve through the terrain beneath Ash Mountain. The map also captures the administrative presence of the Wapiti Buffalo Ranger District, illustrating the management of these protected lands just before the turn of the twenty-first century.
