1989 Map of Plenty Coups Peak

About this map

Yellowstone National Park meets the high-altitude reaches of the Shoshone National Forest Absaroka Wilderness in this 1980s topographic study. The landscape is defined by its massive peaks and the corridors of the Shoshone National Forest Washakie Wilderness, showcasing the intersection of multiple protected alpine regions. Centered on the towering Plenty Coups Peak, the map records the complex drainage systems of Middle Creek and Beaverdam Creek. Civil development is concentrated at the East Entrance Ranger Station along the Entrance Road, providing a precise look at the gateway to the park before modern modifications. Other prominent summits, including Reservation Peak, Arthur Peak, and Mount Langford, anchor the terrain, while landmarks such as Crouch and Atkins Peak mark the southern stretches of the forest boundary.
