2020 Map of Red Springs

About this map

Bighorn National Forest dominates the southern reaches of this high-elevation landscape where the border between Montana and Wyoming meets. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent northwest-trending divides, most notably Telephone Ridge and Buffalo Horn Ridge, which separate deeply incised drainages. These canyons, including Rotten Grass Canyon and Lodge Grass Canyon, represent a complex hydrologic network that feeds into larger regional basins. Local water sources are critical features in this arid environment, marked by sites such as Red Springs, Paint Springs, and Tepee Pole Spring. The map detail captures the intersection of multiple survey townships and the transition from national forest land into the adjacent canyons and ridges of the Big Horn County region.
