2017 Map of Bay Horse

About this map

Bay Horse serves as a focal point in this high-plains landscape of south-central Montana, situated where Bay Horse Rd navigates the drainages of Bay Horse Cr. The settlement pattern is defined by the cattle-ranching heritage of Powder River County, exemplified by the location of Three Bar Ranch near the confluence of Three Bar Cr and N Fork Three Bar Cr. The terrain is deeply etched by a network of seasonal watercourses, including Butte Creek and Bowers Cr, which drain toward the east and south. This 2017 survey details the remote infrastructure of the region, where gravel routes like Recluse Rd provide essential connectivity between isolated ranchsteads and the broader county network. The map provides a clear view of the township and range system, marking out the vast survey sections of t9s r50e and surrounding districts that organize this rural landscape.
