About this map

Becket sits in a high-elevation drainage basin where the headwaters of several prominent creeks emerge. This 2014 survey documents the remote landscape of Fergus County, characterized by a series of north-flowing waterways including S Fork McDonald Cr and Athern Cr. The transition from the high ridges in the south to the canyon systems of the north is marked by Rose Canyon, a significant topographical feature that shapes the local drainage patterns.

Rural connectivity is defined by a sparse network of historical routes, including Forest Grove Rd and Munger Ln. The southern reaches of the map show the sources of Spring Cr and Beaver Ball Cr, illustrating the vital watershed role this area plays for the surrounding Montana plains. These features provide essential context for understanding the 21st-century land use and hydrology of this section of the state.
