2021 Map of Ptarmigan Mountain

About this map

Shoshone National Forest encompasses this high-elevation landscape within the Absaroka Range of Park County. The topography is defined by significant peaks and ridges, including the prominent Ptarmigan Mtn, Citadel Mtn, and the sprawling Wapiti Ridge to the north. This 2021 survey highlights an intricate network of backcountry trails that facilitate movement through the steep terrain, such as the Hardpan Lake/West Twin Creek Trl and the Houlihan Loop Trl. Drainage systems are well-defined, with Clocktower Cr and Hardpan Cr flowing from the heights, while the South Fork Ishawooa River cuts through the southern reaches near the Ishawooa Hills. The map serves as a contemporary record of these established wilderness routes and natural landmarks in the Wyoming wilderness.
