1991 Map of Hurricane Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

Hurricane Mesa dominates this high-elevation landscape within the Shoshone National Forest, standing as a massive plateau above the surrounding drainages. The 1991 revision emphasizes the protected status of the North Absaroka Wilderness, which covers the southern portion of the sheet. Remote back-country access is defined by established routes such as the Crandall Trail and the Papoose Trail, which cross complex drainages including Timber Creek and North Fork Crandall Creek. The presence of Indian Papoose Peak and various water sources like Brown Bear Spring suggest a landscape navigated primarily by pack trails and foot travel. This document reflects the intersection of federal forest management and wilderness preservation in the Absaroka Range during the late twentieth century.
