2014 Map of Acton

About this map

Acton sits at the junction of MT-3 and the Shepherd Acton Rd, serving as a central point in this Yellowstone County landscape. The area is defined by its wide plateaus and drainage networks, most notably the broad expanse of Comanche Flat to the northwest. Water distribution is marked by the branching paths of N Fork Fivemile Cr and S Fork Fivemile Cr, which eventually join as Five Mile Cr as they cut through the terrain. The road network is particularly dense with named rural routes and tracks, such as Buffalo Springs Rd and Wapiti Ridge Trl, reflecting a landscape of ranching and rural homesteads. This 2014 survey documents the persistence of established section lines and named trails like Tipperarie Trl, which follow the natural contours of the Montana high plains.
