2017 Map of Antelope Creek Reservoir

About this map

Antelope Cr Reservoir and several neighboring catchments define the water management landscape of this McCone County territory. The terrain is characterized by a complex network of coulees and intermittent streams, where small-scale damming has created features like Browns Coulee Reservoir and Upper O'Dell Coulee Reservoir to capture runoff in a dry environment. The drainages of Sand Cr, Mud Cr, and Crow Cr carve through the land, illustrating the natural erosional patterns that have shaped this portion of the Montana plains. Rural transportation is facilitated by named tracks such as Mendenhall Rd and Sorley Rd, which provide access to the remote sections of townships T25N and T26N. The presence of Preacher Coulee and Fullers Coulee suggests a history of local land naming based on early settlers or geographical landmarks, essential for genealogists tracing local movements.
