1984 Map of Wags Pinnacle

About this map

Wags Pinnacle stands as a prominent landmark in this section of Campbell County, where the high plains landscape is defined by the branching headwaters of several major drainages. Mapping based on 1970s aerial photography shows a terrain carved by the North Prong Pumpkin Creek and the multiple forks of Wild Horse Creek. The presence of the 4 J Line Camp and its associated 4 J Line Camp Reservoir suggests a landscape dedicated to large-scale ranching and livestock management. These small water catchments, including the Pumpkin Creek Reservoir and Beaver Creek Reservoir, were essential infrastructure for maintaining cattle in an arid environment. Notable relief features such as Chimney Hill and Black Butte provide clear navigational markers across the various prongs and creek beds that crisscross the quadrangle.
