2020 Map of Haymaker Narrows

About this map

The Little Belt Mountains dominate this landscape on the border of Judith Basin and Wheatland counties, where the high-altitude terrain is defined by complex coulees and seasonal water sources. The Lewis & Clark National Forest encompasses much of the area, featuring distinctive landmarks such as Elephant Rock and the sharp rise of Bartleson Peak. A network of historic paths and backcountry routes, including the Haymaker Trail and Mt High Jeep, cross the mountain slopes to reach isolated water points like Sixshooter Spring and Trombone Spring. The geography is particularly intricate near the Haymaker Narrows and the Morrisy Coulee Narrows, where drainage systems like E Fork Haymaker Cr have carved deep passages through the limestone. Evidence of past wildfires is marked at Bluff Mtn Burn, while more permanent landscape features like Iron Springs Coulee provide reliable reference points for those navigating this high country.
