2012 Map of Mosquito Lake

About this map

Park Creek Meadow and Buffalo Meadow dominate this high-elevation landscape within Fremont County. The terrain is defined by a complex network of alpine drainage systems, including the headwaters of Heifer Cr, Pelton Cr, and Raspberry Cr. In the southwestern corner, the Kinky Creek Divide Airport serves as a notable landmark of aviation infrastructure in a largely undeveloped area, accessible by Kinky Creek Rd. The namesake Mosquito Lake sits centrally among numerous unnamed ponds and glacial depressions. This 2012 survey illustrates a region largely shaped by its water and topography, from the heights of Bacon Ridge to the low-lying wetlands that feed into Wagon Cr. The map preserves the specific Forest Service road designations like Rd 263 that provide the only terrestrial links through this mountain environment.
