2015 Map of Lewis Falls

About this map

Yellowstone National Park encompasses this entire high-altitude landscape, where the waters of the south-central plateau converge toward the Lewis River. The geography is defined by significant aquatic features, from the expansive southern reach of Shoshone Lake in the north to the northern tip of Lewis Lake in the southeast. At the junction where the river drains southward, the topography descends sharply at Lewis Falls. This 2015 survey highlights the modern infrastructure of the park, including the John D Rockefeller Jr Pkwy following the river corridor and the high-elevation route of the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail- Wyoming Portion. The map details a complex drainage network involving Moose Cr, Summit Cr, and Polecat Cr, providing a clear view of the park's wilderness management and recreational trail systems like the Delacy Creek Trail.
