About this map

CM Ranch and other local outposts like Torrey Lake Ranch and Trail Lake Ranch anchor the human footprint in this high-altitude landscape. The Wind River cuts through the northeast, while a chain of glacial waters including Torrey Lake, Ring Lake, and Trail Lake follows the path of Torrey Creek south into the peaks. This 1968 survey, revised in 1993, captures the transition from managed forest land to the primitive reaches of the Fitzpatrick Wilderness.

Elevations rise sharply toward the summit of Whiskey Mountain and Arrow Mountain, where pack trails like the Glacier Trail and CM Trail provide the only access. Notable infrastructure includes the State Fish Hatchery and early water management features such as Diamond Ditch and Carson Ditch. The presence of Bomber Falls and the secluded Lake Louise deep within the Shoshone National Forest highlights the remote nature of this Wyoming wilderness.
