About this map

Lodge Grass Canyon and its northern fork dominate this section of the Bighorn Mountains along the Montana and Wyoming border. The landscape is defined by deep drainages and high divides, including the prominent Horse Ridge and Dry Ridge, where the terrain drops sharply at The Beaver Slide. The U.S. Geological Survey mapping reveals a remote region characterized by significant elevation changes, from the heights of The Mesa and Salt Ridge down to the creek beds of Eskimo Cr and Percheron Cr. Access is limited to a few named thoroughfares like Marble Quarry Rd and Lodge Grass Creek Rd, reflecting the isolated nature of these uplands. Named landmarks such as Christmas Tree Coulee and Halfway Canyon provide specific points of reference for navigating this complex system of ridges and coulees.
