2015 Map of Klondike Ranch

About this map

Bighorn National Forest dominates the western portion of this Johnson County landscape, where the high elevations of Crazy Woman Mtn and Sisters Hill drop toward the eastern ranchlands. The area is defined by a sophisticated 20th-century irrigation network, essential for sustaining local agriculture in this semi-arid environment. Named water features like the Watkins Ditch, Thompson and Mathews Ditch Number 35, and Blue Gap Ditch Number 19 reveal the intensive management of resources such as the N Fork Crazy Woman Cr. Remote settlements and ranching outposts like Klondike Ranch and Elgin Park are connected by a web of mountain roads, including Crazy Woman Canyon Rd, while numerous small reservoirs such as Patch Reservoir and Muffie Reservoir dot the terrain to the east.
