About this map

The Crow Indian Reservation Boundary bisects this landscape of the Big Horn region, where the eastern slopes of the Wolf Mountains drop toward a complex drainage network. This 1967 field-checked survey reveals an area defined by its water sources, with the North Fork Rosebud Creek and South Fork Rosebud Creek carving deep paths through the high country.

Remote infrastructure is visible through a primary Landing Strip and additional Landing Strips scattered near the mountain foothills, likely serving the isolated ranching operations characteristic of this terrain. Various natural springs, including Spring, provide vital water points for the high-altitude forks of North Fork Squirrel Creek and North Fork Spring Creek. The map records the interface between tribal lands and the rugged topography of southern Montana during the late 1960s.
