1964 Map of Peyote Point

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area dominates this mid-1960s landscape, centered on the precipitous geography of Black Canyon. The survey illustrates a transition in land use, showing the early years of the Yellowtail Reservoir alongside traditional mountain landmarks and rugged pack routes. The inclusion of the Absaloka Youth Camp and Hunter Cabin provides a human anchor to an otherwise sparsely populated terrain of deep canyons and high ridges. Significant elevation changes are marked by features like Peyote Point and War Man Mountain, while smaller water sources such as Arrowhead Spring and Hunter Spring hint at the locations essential for travelers using the Soldier Trail (Pack) or navigating The Buffalo Pasture. The map also documents a Gaging Station, reflecting the systematic monitoring of the Bighorn River watershed during the development of the Missouri River Basin.
