2018 Map of Pole Creek

About this map

Bridger National Forest dominates this high-country landscape in Lincoln County, where the topography is defined by the prominent North-South spine of Commissary Ridge. The area serves as a critical headwaters region, with numerous drainages like Hams Fork, Pole Cr, and Shingle Mill Cr carving deep through the terrain. The presence of the Poison Hollow Connector and Co Rd 305 indicates the light infrastructure supporting forest management and backcountry access. Local history is etched into the landscape through descriptive place names such as Poison Hollow and family-named water bodies like Burke Cr. The map details the intricate network of the W Fork Beaver Cr and Middle Fork Beaver Cr systems, providing a clear picture of the hydrological patterns within this protected forest during the early 21st century.
