2012 Map of Plenty Coups Peak

About this map

Plenty Coups Peak stands as the central landmark in this high-elevation corner of Park County, where the drainages of several major creeks define the landscape. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the course of Middle Cr, which parallels the main road corridor through this mountain pass. To the south and east, the terrain is shaped by the headwaters of Cabin Cr, Canfield Cr, and Crouch Cr, creating a radial drainage pattern from the high summits. Several prominent peaks serve as topographical anchors, including Reservation Peak, Arthur Peak, and Mount Langford. The map captures the area as it was managed in the early 21st century, illustrating the relationship between steep mountain summits and the narrow riparian corridors of the Shoshone National Forest region. Historical surveyors and contemporary hikers alike use these named peaks and waterways to navigate this part of the Absaroka Range.
