About this map

Browns Hill and the formation of Five Buttes anchor this portion of the Carbon County landscape, where the high-altitude terrain is defined by a series of steep drainages and isolated ridges. The hydrological network is dominated by southern and western flows, including the headwaters of S Fork Cherokee Cr and Cottonwood Cr, while Loco Cr and its W Fork Loco Cr carve deep into the southeastern quadrant.

A sparse network of unpaved roads, including McCarty Canyon Rd and Browns Hill Rd, provides the primary access through this territory. These routes follow the natural contours of the land, navigating between features such as Bird Gulch and Coal Gulch. The arrangement of these roads and watercourses reflects a landscape largely focused on ranching and resource management, with large tracts of land divided by township lines such as t14n r89w.
