About this map

King Mountain stands as a central landmark in this high-altitude Wyoming landscape, where the headwaters of North Fork Horse Creek and Ricker Creek carve through the terrain. The presence of a solitary Schoolhouse along Spring Creek suggests a sparse but established rural community during the 1980s. The region's early industrial and geological interests are evidenced by marked Mines, Prospects, and a Quarry situated near the southern edge of the quadrangle. Steep drainages like Timber Canyon and Katie Brown Canyon define the area's geography, leading down toward the southern canyons. This survey captures a moment in the Laramie Range's history where ranching, resource extraction, and high-country hydrology intersect, preserved in meticulous detail by the USGS.
