About this map

Mount Wallace stands as the central landmark in this high-altitude landscape of Park County, where the terrain is defined by a complex network of basins and drainages. The area is marked by distinctive topographical features like The Hole and the Red Rock Plateau, illustrating a wild environment shaped by seasonal snowmelt and erosion. Passage Falls and Passage Creek occupy the northwestern corner, while the eastern reaches are drained by the long course of Hellroaring Creek.

Evidence of high-country activity is sparse but notable, centered on the Bull Moose Cabin near the confluence of several mountain streams. The drainage patterns of Grizzly Creek, Silver Creek, and Clover Creek converge through a series of natural bowls, including Silver Basin and Clover Basin, showing a landscape largely untouched by industrial development or permanent settlement at the time of this survey.
