2015 Map of Logan Mountain

About this map

Shoshone National Forest lands dominate this part of Park County, where the high ridges of the Absaroka Range meet the deep drainage of Rattlesnake Canyon. This 2015 U.S. Geological Survey study details a landscape defined by significant peaks, including Rattlesnake Mtn, Logan Mtn, and the distinctive Chalk Mtn. The hydrology of the area is centered on Rattlesnake Creek, which is fed by seasonal sources such as Trough Spring and Blue Springs. Human access is primarily limited to forest routes like Rattlesnake Creek Rd and Trail Creek Rd, which navigate the steep transition from the heights of The Palisades down toward the creek beds. This map provides a contemporary record of federal land management and topography in a region where few permanent settlements exist, focusing instead on named natural landmarks and the complex trail-and-road network used by modern explorers and conservationists.
