2012 Map of Elkhorn Point

About this map

The N Platte River carves a significant course through this high-altitude landscape, flowing north through the dramatic North Gate Canyon and past Stovepipe Gulch. This early 21st-century survey documents a region defined by its rugged water management and ranching heritage, featuring the Henry Ditch irrigation system and the established Big Creek Ranch in the west. Topographic landmarks like Prospect Mountain and Deerhorn Point overlook a network of seasonal and perennial streams, including Big Cr and Sixmile Cr. Small-scale human activity is evidenced at the Sixmile Picnic Ground and the Rock Springs site, while access is maintained via USFS Road 516 and Holroyd Rd, illustrating the intersection of public forest land and private ranching interests.
