About this map

Pryor Cr winds through this Yellowstone County landscape, defining a terrain shaped by prominent drainages and early water management. The irrigation infrastructure of Coburn Ditch sits alongside a complex network of coulees, including the central Badbaby Coulee and Cashen Coulee, which suggest the historical importance of seasonal water flow to the local ranching and agricultural economy.

Transportation through this part of the Crow Indian Reservation is marked by significant local thoroughfares like Pryor Rd and the Vermandel Indian Svc Rd, reflecting the intersection of federal service roads and rural Montana county routes. Named landmarks such as Sue Jane Coulee and Smitty Coulee provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracing land use patterns and family-named features in this region south of Billings.
