2014 Map of Bear Creek School

About this map

Bear Creek School and the Dufford Cem serve as the primary historic landmarks in this rural corner of Powder River County. The landscape is defined by a complex network of drainages and prominent geological elevations, including the Chico Buttes and Nipple Butte. Water sources are critical features of this terrain, with named springs such as 08S45E24CADD01 Spring and 08S46E30CCCB01 Spring providing vital points of interest alongside Bear Cr and Vance Cr. Transportation in the area relies on a system of remote corridors like Sayle Rd and Quitus Rd, which navigate the various draws including Mac Alister Draw and Jojo Draw. The map provides a detailed view of the cadastral divisions across T8S and T9S, showing how early settlement patterns were influenced by the rugged topography of the Red Butte vicinity.
