1996 Map of Tolman Flat

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

Tolman Flat sits at the high-elevation intersection of the northern Bighorn Basin and the Beartooth foothills, where the state line divides the landscape between Carbon County and its southern neighbors. The terrain is defined by dramatic drainage systems, notably Wolf Creek and the North Fork and South Fork tributaries, which carve through the rising elevation of the Custer National Forest. The historical Meeteese Trail cuts across this high benchland, tracing a route used by early travelers and freighters through the region. Industrial activity is represented by the Grove Creek Mine near Tiger Gulch, marking the intersection of resource extraction and the difficult topography of the Dilworth Bench. Numerous springs, including Corner Spring and Three Corner Spring, indicate the vital water sources required for livestock and transit in this arid mountain borderland.
