1885 Map of Lake

About this map

Two Ocean Pass serves as a remarkable hydrological centerpiece where the Continental Divide traverses the high wilderness south of Yellowstone Lake. In this high-altitude landscape, drainage patterns diverge toward the world's major oceans via Pacific Creek and Atlantic Creek, a phenomenon that defines the character of the Two Ocean Plateau. The eastern landscape is dominated by the Absaroka Range, featuring jagged landmarks such as The Trident, Turret, and Hawks Rest overlooking the upper Yellowstone River drainage.
