1996 Map of Sheepshead Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Deerlodge National Forest dominates this landscape in Jefferson County, where steep drainages like Cluney Gulch and Wilder Gulch carve into the high country. Evidence of mining operations is pervasive, with numerous prospects and the Ruby Mine scattered across the mountain slopes. The presence of Lowland Tailings and smaller tailings deposits indicates a history of heavy mineral extraction, likely related to the silver and lead industries that once thrived in the region.
