2020 Map of Forks Ranch

About this map

Forks Ranch anchors this portion of Big Horn County, situated within a high-elevation landscape defined by the drainage systems of Hanging Woman Cr and its many tributaries. The area is characterized by dramatic topographic features like Hellers Peak, Old Flat Top, and Hampton Butte, which overlook a network of named coulees and draws including John Reavis Draw, Fricker Draw, and Lieutenant Draw. This is a landscape of wide-ranging ranching operations, where road names like Padlock Ranch Rd and 76 Lower Rd indicate the vital transport links between isolated ranch sites and the broader region. The intricate contour lines reveal the deep erosional patterns of the Montana plains, particularly visible along Canyon Springs Draw and Waddle Cr.
