1967 Map of Kid Creek

About this map

The Wolf Mountains dominate the eastern landscape of this Big Horn County region, rising sharply above the complex drainage systems that define the area. In the late 1960s, this terrain remained largely characterized by ranching and small-scale private aviation, evidenced by the presence of Millers Ranch and a neighboring Landing Strip. The map illustrates a dense network of seasonal and perennial waterways, including the headwaters of Kid Creek and Owl Creek, which carve deep into the high ridges. At the northern edge, Sioux Pass serves as a critical geographic marker where the North Fork Sioux Pass Creek begins its descent. Traces of local resource extraction and water management are found in the Gravel Pit and Steinhilber Reservoir, reflecting the practical infrastructure required for remote mountain living.
