About this map

Becket sits along the northern edge of this Fergus County landscape, where the headwaters of the South Fork McDonald Creek emerge from the surrounding hills. This area is defined by a dense network of drainages and seasonal watercourses, including Athern Creek and Blacktail Creek, which carve through the high country. The terrain transition is most evident in Rose Canyon, a significant geographic feature in the northwest corner of the map.

The local infrastructure is primarily composed of rural routes like Forest Grove Rd and Dixon Rd, which provide access through the complex topography. To the south, the drainages of Beaver Ball Creek, Elk Creek, and Spring Creek highlight the importance of water management in this part of Montana. The map provides a contemporary view of these traditional ranching lands, illustrating how long-standing survey boundaries like t14n r22e and t13n r22e continue to organize the rural landscape.
