About this map

Jack Hall Mountain and Little Baldy Mountain dominate this part of Fremont County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of drainages and legacy mining operations. The central artery of the area is Badger Creek, which is fed by numerous tributaries including Willow Creek, Two Creek, and East Badger Creek. The naming conventions throughout the terrain reflect the area's isolation and rugged character, with labels like Tombstone Gulch, Hells Hole Gulch, and Banning Cabin Gulch suggesting the difficult nature of early passage and settlement.

Local industry is represented by several distinct mining sites scattered across the mountain slopes. Researchers can locate the Badger Creek Mine near the creek's upper reaches, the Cooper Mine on the western flank of Jack Hall Mountain, and the Whispering Pine Mine to the south. Transportation is limited to primitive routes such as County Rd 12 and Sand Rd, illustrating the transition from early pack trails to the modern road network in this high-altitude drainage basin.
