1993 Map of Shell Reservoir

About this map

Bighorn National Forest provides the setting for this high-altitude landscape, where drainage patterns from the Sheridan Co Big Horn Co line flow into the West Fork South Tongue River and Shell Creek. The 1993 field check documents a wilderness character defined by remote water bodies like Adelaide Lake and Lake Arden, and the prominent high-country topography of Bruce Mountain and Dome Peak. A distinctive transition is visible between the open forest and the strictly managed Cloud Peak Wilderness boundary. Local infrastructure is minimal, centered on the Ranger Creek Ranch and the Adelaide Trail, highlighting the area's primary use for recreation and watershed management. Several Gaging Sta markers and an Electronic Site on the peaks suggest the importance of this terrain for hydrologic monitoring and communication in the Big Horn Mountains.
