About this map

S Cottonwood Creek and N Cottonwood Creek weave through this section of the Montana high plains, defining a landscape of complex drainage basins and seasonal watercourses. This 2014 survey reveals a territory primarily shaped by its hydrology and simple transit corridors, where the few established routes like Cottonwood Creek Rd and Black Point Ln follow the natural contours of the terrain.

The presence of numerous creek branches, including Middle Creek, Duncan Creek, and Trough Creek, suggests a region defined by its watersheds within the Public Land Survey System boundaries of t7s r58e and t8s r58e. The label Long Draw identifies a significant topographical depression, illustrating the erosion patterns typical of the Carter County plains. For researchers and landowners, the map provides a precise record of the physical landscape before any further modern development or modification of these prairie drainage systems.
