About this map

The Bighorn National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape along the border of Sheridan and Big Horn counties. In the northern reaches, the Little Bighorn River carves through the Little Bighorn Valley, while the southern portion is defined by the headwaters of the N Tongue River. This terrain is characterized by a dense network of drainage systems, including Lick Cr, Bear Trap Cr, and Fishhook Cr, which illustrate the complex topography of the range.

Evidence of early exploration and mountain passage is found in named landforms like Dayton Gulch and Garland Gulch. The map provides a precise view of the federal land management boundaries and the township and range survey lines that define this portion of the Wyoming wilderness. Small tributaries like Hideout Cr and Lake Cr further detail the intricate hydrology that feeds the larger river basins below.
