2011 Map of Chimney Rock

About this map

Maxey Mines and the individual Maxey Mine stand as prominent markers of the extraction history near the base of Chimney Rock in Park County. This 2011 survey illustrates a mountain landscape where family-named holdings like Blome Ranch and Nesbit Ranch are situated along the drainage of Trail Creek. The map documents a rugged topography defined by notable elevations including Canyon Mountain, Wineglass Mountain, and the distinct ridge known as The Hogback. Transportation routes are sparse, though the southern edge features the Old Yellowstone Trl N, a road name that evokes the historic gateway to the national park. Smaller watercourses such as Eagle Creek and Strickland Creek carve through the terrain, connecting the high ridges of Pine Mountain to the valleys below.
