1987 Map of Specimen Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Yellowstone National Park and the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness converge in this high-altitude landscape where the Gallatin National Forest transitions into the park's northern reaches. The drainage of Hellroaring Creek dominates the central topography, flowing south toward an indefinite boundary that separates Park County from the protected interior. Human presence is limited to backcountry management and primitive transit, evidenced by the Hellroaring Ranger Station and a network of named paths such as the Poacher Trail. Notable peaks like Horse Mountain and Bull Mountain overlook steep drainages including Specimen Creek and the West Fork. The southeastern corner rises toward the Buffalo Plateau, while several smaller water bodies like Carpenter Lake dot the northern terrain. This survey documents the intersection of multiple federal land designations before more recent modifications to wilderness management boundaries.
