2017 Map of Milk Creek

About this map

The Shoshone National Forest boundary defines the northwestern corner of this landscape, where the terrain transitions into a complex system of high ridges and drainage basins. Dramatic landmarks such as Sugar Loaf Mtn and the uniquely named The Holy City dominate the southern half of the quadrangle, punctuated by geological formations like Squaw Teat Butte. Water management in this high-elevation region is evidenced by the presence of Hardys Reservoir and Lake Cr Reservoir, capturing runoff from numerous seasonal drainages including Meadow Cr and Buck Cr.
