Shoshone National Forest
Established in 1891, Shoshone is our oldest national forest. Its nearly
2.5 million acres make up some of the most raw and rugged country in the
Lower 48, and represent the ideal of the expansive all-American West.
Its huge swaths of roadless, untrammeled wildlife habitat make it one
of our national treasures. Nearly 1.4 million acres, more than half the
forest, is designated wilderness. From the high granite plateaus of the
Beartooth Mountains, to alpine tundra, to volcanic mountains, Shoshone
encompasses it all in high, jagged peaks, flat-topped mountains, plateaus
and deep, narrow valleys and canyons. Hundreds of lakes and streams cross
the excellent wildlife habitat.
