Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area defines the northern reaches of this Big Horn County landscape, where deep drainages like Black Canyon and Little Bull Elk Canyon cut through the high terrain. The topography is anchored by War Man Mtn and Peyote Point, revealing a complex system of ridges and basins including Cooper Ridge and the Black Canyon Basin. This modern survey records essential water sources across the arid environment, such as Arrowhead Spring, Hunter Spring, and Three Springs. Named areas like The Buffalo Pasture and Saw Log Canyon speak to the region's land use and traditional resource management. The map provides a detailed view of the natural hydrology, tracing the paths of Black Canyon Cr, War-Man Cr, and Little-Bull-Elk Cr as they navigate the sharp elevation changes of the Montana-Wyoming border region.
