1960 Map of Granite Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Bighorn National Forest landscape across the Sheridan and Big Horn county lines is dominated by high-altitude drainages and dramatic geological features as they appeared in 1960. Water systems including Bull Creek, Big Willow Creek, and Willey Creek carve through the terrain, originating from sources like Three Springs. The map highlights significant landforms such as Bear Rocks and the distinct peak of Copmans Tomb in the south. Surveyors documented the high point at VABM 9774 Prospect and the strategic location of Granite Pass at the southeastern edge of the quadrangle. This 1960 survey, field-checked just before the era of widespread road expansion, preserves the natural hydrology of the area, showing the intricate network of tributaries like Owen Creek and Little Willow Creek before modern intervention altered the backcountry character.
