1960 Map of Lake Solitude

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Bighorn National Forest defines this high-altitude landscape, where deep glaciated basins and sharp ridges dominate the terrain. This 1960 survey, updated with late 1970s revisions, illustrates the seasonal grazing and recreational infrastructure of the era, marked by remote outposts like Hyatt Cow Camp, Crain Camp, and Buck Creek Cow Camp. The drainage patterns of Paint Rock Creek and its branches carve through the highlands, feeding numerous alpine lakes such as Lake Solitude, Lily Lake, and Poacher Lake. The map reveals an intricate network of Pack Trails and Jeep Trails connecting grazing areas like Long Park and Battle Park, providing a detailed look at the land use patterns before modern wilderness designations further restricted motorized access.
