About this map

Blood Creek and Sage Creek carve through this central Montana landscape, marking a terrain defined by complex drainages and the political boundary of Fergus Co and Petroleum Co. The 1985 provisional data reflects a transition in the eastern plains where the primary human footprint is found in water management and early resource extraction, noted by a lone Well situated among the draws. Toward the southern extent of the sheet, the headwaters of Box Elder Creek and Bear Creek begin their descent, illustrating the high-plains hydrology that dictated early ranching boundaries and land use. The map captures the area just before the mid-1980s, preserving the topographical relief and unimproved trail networks of this remote border region.
