About this map

The Poplar River winds through this section of Roosevelt County, creating a complex drainage network characterized by numerous named tributaries. The river valley is flanked by several small creeks, including Badger Cr and Flea Cr, which carve through the Montana landscape. Near the southern edge of the quadrangle, the Poplar Municipal Airport serves as a modern waypoint, situated along a series of Bureau of Indian Affairs routes such as BIA Rte 75 and BIA Rte 150.

Upstream to the northwest, the Crandall Reservoir provides a concentrated water source amidst the rolling terrain. Local hydrologic features like Little Badger Spring and the headwaters of Little Badger Cr indicate the importance of water management and natural springs in this region. This 2017 survey details the intersection of regional transit and natural waterways, from the Culbertson Cr in the northeast to the Boxelder Cr in the southwest.
