2011 Map of Specimen Creek

About this map

Hellroaring Creek dominates the central drainage of this Park County landscape, flowing southward between prominent elevations. The high-altitude terrain is defined by Horse Mountain in the west and Bull Mountain further east, with Hellroaring Mountain marking the southern reaches of the quadrangle. This 2011 survey reveals an environment shaped by water, where Specimen Creek feeds into the dramatic Specimen Falls and another unnamed Waterfall. In the northern territory, Carpenter Lake sits near the headwaters of Grizzly Creek, illustrating the glacial or high-alpine character of the region. The lack of roads or structures highlights a protected or primitive wilderness area where the natural drainage network of Coyote Creek, Beaver Creek, and Horse Creek remains the primary organizing feature of the land.
