1960 Map of Shell Falls

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Bighorn National Forest dominates this 1960s-era survey, which focuses on the dramatic topography where the western slopes of the mountains drop into Shell Canyon. The map centers on the namesake Shell Falls and the adjacent Shell Falls Observation Point, illustrating the recreational development of the area during the mid-century. The landscape is defined by the complex drainage of the Shell Creek system, including its North Fork and South Fork, which carve through prominent features like Bald Ridge and Snowshoe Mountain.
