1972 Map of Jellison Place

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Lewis and Clark National Forest boundary marks a sharp transition between the wooded, canyon-carved highlands and the spring-fed rangelands of the Judith Basin. The Judith Basin and Wheatland County line traverses the northern section of the map, cutting through Sawmill Canyon and Dark Canyon. This landscape is defined by its water management, evidenced by the presence of Jellison Reservoir and the Middle Fork Reservoir situated among a network of natural water sources like Muir Spring and Forks Spring. The namesake Jellison Place sits at the base of the forest slopes where the terrain levels out into the Middle Fork and Hopley Creek drainages. The distribution of numerous wells and named springs suggests a landscape where water was the primary driver of habitation and livestock management during the early 1970s.
