2021 Map of Porcupine Creek

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Bridger National Forest defines the rugged verticality of this Wyoming landscape, where the headwaters of the Smiths Fork and its numerous tributaries like Porcupine Cr carve deep drainages between high ridges. The map documents a convergence of westward expansion routes, specifically the Lander Cutoff Nat Historic Trl Trl and the Oregon Trail Lander Cutoff, providing a modern look at these vital 19th-century immigrant paths. Settlement is absent here, replaced by a dense network of high-altitude trails such as the Buckskin Knoll Trl and Coppermine-Labarge Trl. Notable landmarks include Lake Alice and Crystal Lake, tucked into the eastern basins, while the central Porcupine Ridge separates the primary creek valleys. The layout reflects a landscape dedicated to forest management and wilderness recreation, preserving the exact corridors used by early pioneers.
