2017 Map of Maki Creek

About this map

Bridger National Forest defines the western terrain of this Sublette County quadrangle, where high-elevation drainage systems create a dense network of mountain streams. The watershed is anchored by Maki Creek and its tributary Little Maki Cr, which flow eastward out of the forest boundaries. The landscape is characterized by a transition from the wooded slopes of the national forest to the more open drainage basins of N Cottonwood Cr and S Cottonwood Cr. An interesting historical element is the alignment of Old Indian, a trail or road that skirts the forest edge, suggesting long-established transit routes through this part of Wyoming. To the east, the terrain levels into areas containing Greenwood Springs and the meandering paths of Killpeeker Cr and Mickelson Cr, illustrating the complex hydrology of the high plains.
