Woody Creek and its tributaries define the drainages of this Garfield County landscape, where water management is central to the land's utility. The drainage system of East Fork Woody Creek is marked by a series of numbered water control structures, including Big Bucks Number 9 Dam and Big Bucks Number 8 Dam, indicating a coordinated approach to ranching or land management in this arid region. Further south, the map identifies Binions Reservoir Number 2 Dam and Big Bucks Number 7 Dam along the contours of the coulees. This network of small-scale dams and reservoirs, such as Fellman Dam on First Creek and the Jim Bob Number 1 Dam further downstream, illustrates the critical importance of seasonal water retention in the eastern Montana plains.
