2012 Map of Squaretop Mountain

About this map

Squaretop Mountain and the high peaks of the Wind River Range dominate this 2012 survey of the Wyoming wilderness. The landscape is defined by its dramatic hydrology, where the Green River flows through the northeast and the New Fork River emerges from the glacial basins of New Fork Park. This map reveals a complex system of alpine water bodies, including Granite Lake, Hidden Lakes, and the Cutthroat Lakes, all situated among prominent summits like Granite Peak and Dome Peak. The drainage patterns are clearly marked by Porcupine Cr, Marten Cr, and Lake Cr, which carve through the high-elevation terrain. This modern topographic record is essential for understanding the contemporary state of the Wyoming backcountry, detailing the remote corridors of Palmer Canyon and the high-altitude crossing at Porcupine Pass.
