1960 Map of Spanish Point

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Bighorn National Forest provides the setting for this 1960 topographic study of the high Wyoming backcountry. The map centers on the dramatic terrain of Spanish Point and the complex drainage of Medicine Lodge Creek and its many tributaries, including Dry Medicine Lodge Creek and North Trapper Creek. This region, surveyed for the development of the Missouri River Basin, reveals a landscape utilized by both cattlemen and early recreationalists. The presence of the Taylor Cow Camp reflects the area's grazing history, while the cluster of high-altitude waters—including Upper Medicine Lodge Lake, Round Lake, and Lower Paint Rock Lake—highlights its importance as a watershed. In the southeast, the Paint Rock Lodge and Paint Rock Lakes Guard Station mark a focal point for mountain travel near the Edelman Trail and North High Park Trail.
