About this map

Horse Butte rises as a central landmark in this high-elevation landscape of the Big Horn Mountains' southern extent. The drainage network is particularly intricate here, defined by the numerous branches of N Fork Little Canyon Cr and the S Fork Red Fork Powder River. This hydrological complexity suggests a terrain deeply carved by seasonal runoff, where water sources like Bear Spring provided critical stops for early travelers and livestock. Primitive routes such as Dry Farm Rd and Hazelton Rd trace the ridgelines and valleys, indicating a long-standing pattern of ranching and movement through these upland grazing territories. The name Mulligan Hole further speaks to the localized, often family-named geography of Wyoming's backlands, marking a specific basin or depression that stood out to early settlers and surveyors navigating the Washakie County terrain.
