About this map

Wolf Mountain and the high ridges of Grant County define this landscape, where the headwaters of numerous creeks begin their descent through the terrain. The central summit is flanked by the West Wolf Lookout and East Wolf Lookout, overseeing a network of forest roads like Wolf Mountain Rd and Hardscrabble Rd. This area is characterized by an extensive system of high-altitude water management, featuring a dense concentration of small catchments including Blue Jay Reservoir, Robin Reservoir, and Battle Ridge Reservoir.

Named camps and pastures suggest a history of seasonal grazing and forest management, with sites like Humphreys Pasture, Black Canyon Camp, and Humphrey Camp positioned near reliable water sources such as Twin Springs and Lloyd Spring. In the southeast, the confluence at Three Forks marks a significant junction in the drainage pattern, while the western reaches are defined by the deep incisions of Tamarack Creek and Cottonwood Creek.
