1969 Map of Limestone Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Crow Indian Reservation lands in Big Horn County are defined by the dramatic relief of Limestone Canyon and the branching drainage network of Soap Creek. Surveyed in the late 1960s, this landscape is a study in natural hydrology and high-plateau terrain, where numerous unnamed Spring and Springs emerge from the coulees to feed the larger creeks. The area is largely devoid of permanent settlements, reflecting the managed land use of the reservation during this period. Navigation through the complex topography is limited to a singular Jeep Trail that cuts across the central ridges, connecting the drainages of West Fork Soap Creek and Deer Creek. This map captures the territory before modern development, showing the sheer verticality of the canyon walls and the importance of seasonal water sources like Goose Coulee to the local geography.
