About this map

Bighorn National Forest dominates this section of the Bighorn Mountains on the border of Sheridan and Johnson counties. The landscape is defined by significant elevations, including Little Goose Peak and the prominent Bosin Rock. Water management is a visible priority in the high country, where the Last Chance Ditch and Red Hill Ditch navigate the complex topography near Poverty Flat.

Natural landmarks like Black Canyon and Red Grade Spring are accessible via a network of forest roads and trails, such as Red Grade Rd and the Story Penrose trail. The presence of Kinney Wood Park and Penrose Park suggests a long-standing history of recreational and conservation use within this federal reserve. The map also records early irrigation efforts through labeled drainage and ditch systems that feed into Little Goose Cr and N Piney Cr.
