2015 Map of Tripod Peak

About this map

Teton National Forest encompasses the high country of this 2015 survey, dominated by the drainage systems of the Spread Creek and Fish Creek watersheds. The landscape is defined by the prominent Tripod Peak and a dense network of mountain streams including Elkhorn Cr and Hardscrabble Cr. This area represents a managed wilderness environment where historical pack routes like Cottonwood (Pack) provide access through the complex topography. Historical movement through these peaks is evidenced by established transition paths such as the Spruce Creek Cut-Off and the Packsaddle Cut-Off. The map details the intricate hydrography of the region, from the headwaters of S Fork Spread Cr to the southern reaches of Dog Creek and N Fork of Fish Creek, reflecting the importance of water management and forest service access in this part of Wyoming.
