1967 Map of Pole Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Bridger National Forest dominates this Wyoming landscape, revealing a high-altitude drainage network as it existed in the late 1960s. The terrain is characterized by the prominent Commissary Ridge and an intricate system of creeks that suggest a history of seasonal resource extraction. Names like Shingle Mill Creek and Sawmill Creek point toward early timber operations, while the numerous Jeep Trails and Pack Trails crisscrossing the slopes of Poison Hollow and Burke Creek reflect the area's use for backcountry access and livestock grazing. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, Pole Creek and Carl Creek flow through the valleys, providing a snapshot of the watershed before more modern developments. The map effectively documents the transition between the high ridges and the complex water systems of Hams Fork and Beaver Creek.
