2017 Map of Mount Schidler

About this map

Mt Schidler and Coal Mine Mtn anchor this high-elevation landscape within the Bridger National Forest, where the border between Lincoln and Sublette counties runs along the crest of the Wyoming Range. This 2017 survey documents a complex network of alpine drainages including North Piney Creek and Lake Creek, which feeds into the secluded North Piney Lake. The terrain is defined by its recreation and resource history, evidenced by the Wyoming Range National Recreation Trail and various high passes like Box Canyon Pass and Bare Pass. Geologic and industrial markers are visible through features like Bare Mtn and the namesake peak, while seasonal grazing and hydrology are represented by sites such as North Piney Meadows and Lunch Creek Meadows. The presence of the Mud Lake Loop near Mud Lake reflects the modern management of this backcountry area.
