2014 Map of East Pryor Mountain

About this map

East Pryor Mtn dominates this 2014 survey of the high-elevation divide between Custer National Forest and the Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area. The landscape is defined by its deep drainages and dramatic topographic drops, featuring named landmarks such as Lost Water Canyon, Wassin Canyon, and Cave Canyon. These steep features are contrasted by the presence of Buffalo Jump and Deadman Creek Grave, which offer quiet evidence of human history and cultural activity within the remote canyons. The map tracks the movement of water through systems like Dry Head Cr and the complex forks of S Fork Deadman Cr, while primitive routes like Burnt Timber Rdg and Skyes Rd trace the ridgelines and plateaus of Carbon County.
