2017 Map of Sherrard Hill

About this map

The Bear Lodge Mountains define this section of the Black Hills National Forest in Crook County. High-altitude landmarks such as Sherrard Hill, Manly Hill, and Newton Hill punctuate the landscape, while the Brimmer Divide serves as a prominent geographic spine. These peaks are drained by a network of waterways including Blacktail Cr, which feeds into the Blacktail Reservoir, as well as Lytle Cr and W Lytle Cr. The map reveals a complex web of mountain access routes, including Bear Lodge Rd and the extensive Hershey Branch system, such as Hershey Branch 1T. This late-era survey documents the modern management of the forest lands, showing the patchwork of Bhnf holdings and the detailed Forest Service road infrastructure that replaced earlier pioneer trails.
