2017 Map of Sunshine Reservoir

About this map

Sunshine Reservoir and Lower Sunshine Reservoir anchor this landscape in Park County, where complex irrigation networks like the Sunshine Supply Ditch, Pappapau Ditch, and the curiously named Only Chance Ditch redirect water across the Upper Sunshine Basin. The Greybull River cuts across the northern reaches, while the Wood River passes through the southeast, highlighting a territory defined by high-altitude water management. Terrain features such as Pappapau Butte, Schaub Butte, and Sheep Point provide prominent landmarks overlooking the drainages of Sunshine Creek and Stonewall Cr. To the southwest, the boundary of the Shoshone National Forest marks a transition into protected wilderness, while a system of rural roads including Pitchfork Rd and Wood River Rd provides access to these remote ranching and water-storage areas.
