About this map

Goat Peak stands as a prominent high point in this 2021 survey of the Shoshone Range in Lander County. The landscape is defined by a series of steep drainages, including Hancock Canyon, Jacks Canyon, and Goat Canyon, which feed into the complex watershed of Mill Cr. This modern topographic study reveals a high-elevation environment where water is a critical resource, marked by specific points like Roadside Spring, South Spring, and the uniquely named Harry Canyon Spring Number Two.

A extensive network of recreational paths, specifically the Shoshone Ohv Trail System, crisscrosses the western slopes, suggesting the modern utility of this terrain for off-highway vehicle access. To the south, the topography rises toward Horse Mtn and the transit point of Wilson Pass above Wilson Canyon. The map provides clear detail of the Mill Creek Summit and the radiating forks of the creek, including the N Fork Mill Cr and Middle Fork Mill Cr.
