2017 Map of Pitchfork

About this map

Pitchfork sits at the heart of this high-elevation landscape, where the Greybull River carves through the foothills of the Absaroka Range. The ranching heritage of Park County is evident in the irrigation systems that trace the riverbanks, including the Pitchfork Ditch and the Sunshine Supply Ditch. Beyond the river valley, the terrain rises sharply into the Shoshone National Forest, a region defined by complex drainage networks like Four Bear Cr and Paradise Cr. This map preserves the location of the Pitchfork Ranch Cem, a site of local genealogical interest. The southern portion of the sheet is marked by a network of historic wilderness routes, such as the Francs Fork / Haymaker Trail and the Timber Creek / Deer Creek Trail, which provide access to the steep timberline country.
