1952 Map of Bull Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Isolated sheep and cattle ranching operations define this high-desert landscape in the mid-twentieth century. The territory is anchored by family-named landmarks such as the Justin McCarthy Ranch and David McCarthy Ranch, illustrating the dispersed settlement pattern typical of this corner of the Missouri River Basin. These homesteads rely on a series of drainages, including Bridger Creek and Lysite Creek, which cut through the high terrain between Bull Mountain and Klondike Peak. The presence of the historic Bridger Road winding through the center of the map highlights a legacy of movement and commerce through the Basin. Researchers will find a meticulously documented network of unimproved roads and seasonal water sources like Nowater Creek, providing a detailed record of the land use before more modern infrastructure altered the rural character of the region.
