1986 Map of Fossil Lake

About this map

Fossil Lake and the surrounding high-altitude plateaus of the Absaroka Beartooth Wilderness dominate this 1980s landscape at the Montana-Wyoming border. This environment is characterized by an exceptional density of glacial tarns and small water bodies, many with descriptive or peculiar names such as Pneumonia Lake, No Bones Lake, and Fizzle Lake. The map details the convergence of the Gallatin National Forest and Shoshone National Forest, illustrating a region where high peaks like Mount Dewey and Mount Rosebud overlook a network of alpine basins.
