1956 Map of Kisinger Lakes

About this map

Pinnacle Buttes dominate the skyline of this high-altitude landscape within the Shoshone National Forest, captured during a 1956 field survey. The area serves as a rugged intersection of wilderness management and early 20th-century history, marked by the Tie Hack Historical Monument near the headwaters of the Wind River. This reach of the river valley is dotted with historic working properties including Triangle C Ranch, Griffith Ranch, and Lava Creek Ranch, suggesting a legacy of ranching and outfitting that persisted into the mid-century. Mapping includes critical backcountry infrastructure such as the Sheridan Creek Guard Station and a First Aid Station, alongside recreation sites like Pinnacle Campground. Numerous alpine water bodies, including Kisinger Lakes and Mud Lake, feed the network of creeks that carve through the surrounding Elk Ridge.
