1981 Map of Moccasin Lake

About this map

Washakie Reservoir and the winding course of the South Fork Little Wind River define this high-elevation landscape within the Wind River Indian Reservation. The 1981 survey reveals a complex network of glacial lakes and dramatic peaks, where the transition from river valleys to alpine heights is marked by the presence of Mount Popo Agie and Mount Cross. The map illustrates a reliance on primitive transportation routes, showing numerous pathways like the Moccasin Lake Road and a dense system of trails, including several designated as Pack Trail and Jeep Trail, which provide access to remote water bodies such as Pie Lake and Moccasin Lake. This terrain, characterized by steep drainages like Trout Creek and Cottonwood Creek, remains largely unsettled, serving primarily as a corridor for water management and wilderness travel.
