About this map

Hughesville and Barker anchor this high-altitude landscape along the border of Judith Basin County and Cascade County. Located within the Lewis & Clark National Forest, the terrain is defined by steep drainages like McKay Gulch and Henn Gulch, which feed into Dry Fork Belt Cr and Little Otter Cr. The map reveals a complex system of land partitions, including numerous private blocks like PB 39 and PB 42, which intersect with prominent peaks such as Barker Mtn and Irene Peak.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Barker Cem near the intersection of Co RD 101 and Galena Cr. The distribution of these named parcels and old roads suggests a history of localized settlement and resource claims centered around the ridges. Water sources are plentiful throughout the area, from the N Fork Hoover Cr in the south to Kibbey Canyon in the north, providing a clear picture of the drainage patterns along Sawmill Ridge and Hoover Ridge.
