About this map

Bighorn National Forest dominates this landscape, where steep slopes and high-altitude drainage systems define the geography. The map shows a sophisticated network of water management and access, featuring several segments of ditch infrastructure alongside a Gaging Sta on Rock Creek. These human modifications contrast with the numerous established transit lines, including a significant Jeep Trail and various Pack Trails that navigate the varied terrain around Stone Mountain.

H F Bar Ranch sits as a primary point of human settlement on the eastern edge of the forest. The area is characterized by dramatic landforms such as The Speedway and Red Canyon, with the broad Mowry Basin providing a distinct topographical shift from the mountain ridges. Tributaries like McDonald Creek and Crow Creek feed into the larger basins, illustrating the complex hydrology of Johnson County in the late 1960s.
