1961 Map of Medicine Bow Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Medicine Bow Peak and the high-altitude landscape of the Snowy Range dominate this topography, captured in a period of late-twentieth-century forest management and recreational development. The map details the complex drainage systems of the Medicine Bow Mountains, where numerous alpine water bodies like Lake Marie, Lookout Lake, and Mirror Lake cluster around the base of the peaks. Settlement is sparse, represented primarily by administrative and recreational nodes such as Headquarters Park and the Silver Lake Campground. The presence of several Jeep Trails and Foot Trails suggests a landscape transitioning toward more intensive recreational use within the Medicine Bow National Forest. The boundary between Carbon and Albany Counties bisects the rugged terrain, marking a divide between the higher summits and the lower meadows of Willow Park and Fourlog Park.
