2011 Map of Horn

About this map

Horn is situated at the center of this 2011 survey, where the convergence of Little Cottonwood Creek and Sand Creek defines the local topography. This landscape is characterized by a series of significant grazing and water management features, including the Dahlheimer Reservoir, Rock Bass Reservoir, and the Big Cottonwood Allot 1 Reservoir. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevation points such as the Mike Kern Hills and Square Hill in the northwest, alongside the prominent Benedict Buttes. The extensive network of ranch and access roads, such as Toadstool Rd and Cottonwood Rd, connects isolated dams and allotments across the drainage basins of Big Cottonwood Creek and Dirty Creek. The presence of naming conventions like Dodd-McDowell Dam provides clear genealogical ties to the families that managed this Dawes County rangeland.
