1964 Map of Burgess Junction

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Big Horn National Forest encompasses this high-country landscape, where the Tongue River and its numerous tributaries like Bull Creek and Little Willow Creek carve through the Sheridan County terrain. The 1964 survey documents a region defined by summer grazing and early recreational development, featuring specialized outposts like Wolfe Cow Camp and P K Cow Camp. The hub at Burgess Junction serves as the primary meeting point for travelers and forest management, supported by the Burgess Ranger Station and a local Heliport. Economic activity is represented by a Sawmill near the river and a Gravel Pit along the roadway. The map also captures the beginnings of a recreational economy at Twin Buttes Lodge and the North Tongue River Campground, while showcasing unique landmarks such as the Garden of the Gods.
