2012 Map of Little Goose Peak

About this map

Little Goose Peak rises above a high-altitude landscape defined by seasonal livestock operations and water management in the Big Horn Mountains. The presence of Gallatin Cow Camp and the winding Stockwell Pack TRL reflects a persistent ranching culture, while water management infrastructure like the Last Chance Ditch and Red Hill Ditch indicates the critical role of mountain runoff for lower-elevation agriculture. The terrain is marked by distinct landmarks such as Bosin Rock and Poverty Flat, with Little Goose Cr and its various forks carving through Black Canyon. Recreational and environmental management are evident at the Little Goose Campground and protected areas like Kinney Wood Park and Penrose Park. This 2012 survey documents the region's complex drainage network, including N Piney Cr and E Fork Davis Cr, which supports both local ecology and human enterprise.
