2024 Map of Akers Ranch

About this map

Arkansas Spring serves as a vital water source in this dry section of Musselshell County, where the landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of Howard Creek and North Willow Creek. The terrain is characterized by deep erosional features like Howard Coulee, which cuts through the high ground in the northern portion of the township. Local transportation is limited to a few established routes, including Ragged Point Rd and Akers Rd, which provide access to the dispersed ranching operations of this Montana interior. The layout of Sand Creek in the south further illustrates the seasonal water flow typical of the region. This 2024 data represents a modern view of a sparsely populated ranching territory, showing how few physical landmarks punctuate the open range outside of these critical named springs and creek beds.
