2011 Map of Forks Ranch

About this map

Hanging Woman Creek serves as the central drainage for this section of Big Horn County, winding through a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and named draws. This 2011 survey illustrates the rural character of the region, where roads like Hanging Woman Rd and 76 Rd follow the natural contours of the land. Landmarks such as Hellers Peak and Hampton Butte provide prominent vertical orientation points amidst a network of seasonal watercourses including Corral Creek, Waddle Creek, and Deep Creek. The map records several features with family or descriptive names, such as John Reavis Draw and Old Flat Top, providing valuable data for genealogists tracing local land usage. The ranching heritage of the area is anchored at the southern end by the eponymous Forks Ranch, located near the confluence of several prominent draws.
