2017 Map of Stinkingwater Peak

About this map

Yellowstone National Park and Shoshone National Forest meet in this high-altitude landscape dominated by the peaks of the Absaroka Range. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, with the Lamar River cutting through the northwestern corner and the N Fork Shoshone River flowing through the southern basins. This area is a critical junction for high-country travel, as evidenced by the network of historical routes including the Hoodoo Basin Trail, Sunlight Cr Trail, and the Pahaska Sunlight Trail. Prominent landmarks such as Stinkingwater Peak, Hoodoo Peak, and Dike Mtn mark the ridgelines, while deep depressions like Hoodoo Basin and Silvertip Basin collect the headwaters of numerous creeks including Hoodoo Cr and One-Hunt Cr.
