1956 Map of Sunlight Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Absaroka Range dominates this mid-century survey, where the boundaries of Yellowstone National Park meet the Shoshone National Forest. High-altitude land management is evident through the placement of the Upper Miller Creek Patrol Sta and Upper Lamar River Patrol Sta, serving as remote outposts for park rangers and foresters. The landscape is a complex network of peaks and drainages, notably the Sunlight Mining Region situated between the Sunlight Creek and Silverlip Basin. This area highlights the legacy of early prospecting and extraction efforts in the high mountains of Wyoming.
