About this map

The Missouri River winds through the northern portion of this Fergus County landscape, defining the hydrology of a region shaped by significant drainage systems. To the south, the expansive network of Two Calf Creek and the South Fork Two Calf Creek dominates the terrain, illustrating the complex watershed patterns found in this part of Montana. The eponymous Baker Monument stands as a primary landmark in the western section, while the eastern reaches are defined by the elevation of Barnes Ridge.

Human activity is represented by scattered infrastructure such as Gumbo Dam and a network of local routes. Long-distance transit and historical movement are traced through the D-Y Trl, which crosses the central section alongside roads like Heller Rd and Middle Z Cale Rd. The map provides a detailed view of these watercourses, including Woodhawk Creek, as they intersect with the varied topography of the plains and ridges.
