2021 Map of Shell Lake

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Bighorn National Forest provides the setting for this high-altitude landscape where the headwaters of numerous creeks begin their descent. Shell Cr and Medicine Lodge Cr carve paths through the mountain terrain, fed by a dense concentration of glacial basins. The map illustrates a network of historic backcountry routes, including the Edelman Trl and Solitude Loop Trl, which connect significant crossings like Edelman Pass and Dutch Oven Pass. These trails served as essential conduits through the wilderness long before modern road development. Notable water bodies such as Shell Lake, Granite Lake, and the uniquely named Lakes of the Rough are interspersed with plateaus like Teepee Pole Flats. The survey meticulously records the drainage patterns and rocky divides that define the hydrologic character of this part of northern Wyoming.
