1967 Map of Lake Helen

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Bighorn National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape, captured in a mid-1960s survey along the border of Big Horn and Johnson counties. The terrain is defined by a series of significant mountain features and glaciated basins, most notably Bomber Mountain and the Mather Peaks. This area serves as a critical watershed, with Paint Rock Creek and West Tensleep Creek draining the snow-fed heights. High mountain passes like Florence Pass connect deep glacial valleys such as Florence Canyon. The network of back-country routes, including the Solitude Trail and Mistymoon Trail, links numerous alpine water bodies like Mistymoon Lake, Lake Helen, and the Lost Twin Lakes. Several campgrounds and open meadows like Medicine Cabin Park and Elk Park indicate the area's established role for recreation and livestock grazing within the forest boundary.
