About this map

Medicine Bow National Forest dominates this high-country landscape, where the Union Pacific Railroad cuts a north-south path through the timber. The settlement of Foxpark serves as a central hub, accompanied by the Foxpark Work Center and nearby mountain outposts like Mountain Home and Gramm. This map preserves the 1990s layout of a region defined by logging and ranching history, evidenced by the Pelton Ranch and Ox Yoke Ranch situated along the drainage of Pelton Creek.

Resource extraction and recreation are mapped side-by-side, from the American Mine in the south to the Lake Creek Resort in the northwest. High points like Somber Hill and Douglas Point overlook a dense network of forest access routes, including the Platte Access Road and Lincoln Park Road. The presence of Collins (Site) alongside the active settlement of Collins indicates shifting residential patterns within the forest's boundaries during the late twentieth century.
