2012 Map of Mount Chittenden

About this map

Mount Chittenden and its surrounding drainage systems define this high-elevation landscape within Park County. The area is characterized by a series of critical mountain crossings that facilitate movement between remote watersheds, including Mist Creek Pass, Jones Pass, and Crow Creek Pass. These gaps serve as natural corridors between the complex networks of Raven Cr, Pelican Cr, and Bear Cr. Human presence is minimal and concentrated around Pelican Springs Cabin, situated near the headwaters of the springs. The mapping of Stonecup Lake and the various tributaries like Astringent Cr and Sedge Cr reveals a terrain defined by its water sources and the natural gaps through the high ridges. This 2012 survey provides a clear view of the hydrological patterns and high-country landmarks that have long guided travelers through this part of Wyoming.
