Jack Creek Divide serves as a prominent geographic spine across this portion of Custer County, separating the various drainages that define the local topography. This 2020 USGS survey illustrates a landscape dominated by its water network, where numerous seasonal and perennial streams like Ash Creek and Cabin Creek carve through the terrain. The distribution of these waterways suggests a ranching landscape where access to water is paramount, with Nelson Creek and Pratt Creek extending into the northern reaches. In the southwest, Red Butte stands as a notable landmark near Winter Creek, while the eastern sections are marked by more intricate drainage systems including Maggie Creek and Chinnick Creek. The map provides a clear look at the township and range boundaries that organize this section of the Montana prairie.
