2012 Map of Ramshorn Peak

About this map

Ramshorn Peak and the surrounding high-altitude drainage basins of northwestern Fremont County characterize this portion of the Absaroka Range during the early twenty-first century. The landscape is defined by its complex hydrology, where Burroughs Cr and Horse Cr carve through high meadows like Deacon Meadows and Ramshorn Basin. Human activity is primarily centered on remote outposts and historical operations, including the T Cross Ranch and the Fisher Tie Camp, the latter reflecting the area's history of timber harvesting for the railroad industry. Local ranching footprints are evident through established holdings such as the Utzinger Ranch, Adams Ranch, and Houg Ranch. Higher elevations are marked by alpine water bodies like Burnt Timber Lake, Virgin Lake, and Rainbow Lake, while the southern terrain rises toward Battrum Mountain and E A Mountain.
