1993 Map of Bald Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

The ancient Medicine Wheel and the high-elevation slopes of the Bighorn National Forest define this terrain during the early 1990s. The map captures the divide between Big Horn and Sheridan Counties, an area where high peaks like Bald Mountain and Duncum Mountain rise above the drainage of the Little Bighorn River. Of particular interest to local historians is the Bald Mountain City (Site), a vestige of former settlement in the high country, along with utilitarian locations such as Cow Camp and Sheep Camp. The landscape is a network of ridges and watercourses, including Devil's Canyon and Porcupine Creek. Transportation through these heights is centered on the Medicine Wheel Passage Scenic Byway, which provides access to the Medicine Wheel Ranger Station and various points of interest near the summit. The presence of several Gravel Pits and various pipelines indicates the continued intersection of industrial needs with this protected forest land.
