2017 Map of Wild Horse Parks

About this map

Wild Horse Parks and the surrounding drainage basins define this 2017 study of the mountainous border between Powell and Granite Counties. The landscape is dominated by a complex network of creeks and gulches, including the curiously named Yourname Cr and the more traditional Murray Cr. This map documents a high-country region where access is primarily via forest roads and fire routes, such as McElwain Fire Rd 2840 and Rattler Gulch Rd. The terrain is deeply incised, characterized by features like Wet Mulkey Gulch and Bilk Gulch. These named landmarks and water sources, such as Nelson Spring, provide essential reference points for land management and navigation in this portion of the Montana Rockies, illustrating the intersection of natural hydrology and modern cartography in a remote interior setting.
