2012 Map of Yellow Mountain

About this map

Yellow Mountain stands as the central landmark in this high-elevation corner of Park County, where the headwaters of the Yellowstone watershed define the landscape. The intricate drainage network is dominated by the Thorofare Cr and the Valley Fork, which wind through the terrain to join the N Fork Yellowstone River at the southern edge of the sheet. This map captures a pristine wilderness environment, showing the convergence of numerous named streams such as Butte Cr, Woody Cr, and Bruin Cr. The confluence at Esmond Forks illustrates the complex natural irrigation of the region, providing a detailed view of the topographical features and riparian corridors that have remained largely unchanged by modern development.
