2015 Map of North Fork Pickett Creek

About this map

Shoshone National Forest lands dominate this high-altitude landscape in Park County, where the eastern front of the Absaroka Range transitions into the Bighorn Basin. The complex drainage network is defined by the N Fork Pickett Cr and the main stem of Pickett Cr, which flow eastward toward the arid plains. Higher elevations are marked by glacial features like Martin Lake, while the southern portion of the map shows human efforts to manage water in this dry environment at the Big Piney Reservoir. Evidence of the region’s energy economy is found along the southern border with the presence of Four Bear Oil Field Rd. The map also traces the headwaters of Meeteetse Cr and several forks of Rock Creek, including Middle Fork Rock Cr and E Fork Rock Cr, illustrating the rugged, dissected topography that characterizes this portion of northwestern Wyoming.
