About this map

The Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad line bisects this rugged borderland, marking a transit corridor between the Wyoming and South Dakota state line. In the western portion of the map, industrial activity is represented by the Lucky Strike Bentonite Mine, situated near the headwaters of Beaver Creek. The landscape transitions sharply from the plains of the west to the higher elevations of the Harney National Forest in the east, where the terrain is punctuated by distinctive landmarks like Twin Buttes, Sullivan Peak, and Red Point.
