About this map

The Wolf Mountain Lookout Tower stands as the central landmark of this high-elevation landscape in Big Horn County, overseeing the rugged drainage systems of the Wolf Mountains. The terrain is deeply incised by numerous seasonal watercourses, including Little Corral Cr, Shavings Cr, and the headwaters of S Fork Reno Cr. These creeks carve out distinctive landforms like Cook Stove Canyon and wind around prominent rises such as Shortys Hill.

A limited network of unimproved roads, including Corral Cr Rd and Grey Blanket Rd, provides access through the complex topography of these Montana highlands. The map illustrates a remote wilderness where the natural hydrology of streams like Sioux Pass Cr and N Fork Indian Cr dictates the movement and settlement patterns of the region, which remains largely dominated by the physical features of the Wolf Mountain range.
