2024 Map of Blacktail Creek NW

About this map

The Powder River carves a winding path along the western edge of this territory, defining a landscape marked by its drainage networks. Small intermittent flows like Nichols Creek feed into the river, while the central and eastern sections are shaped by the bifurcating paths of Blacktail Creek and Little Blacktail Creek. This area sits on the boundary between Custer and Carter counties, a remote ranching and grazing region where the terrain is dominated by complex contour patterns rather than concentrated settlements. To the north, the headwaters of Alkali Creek drain through the ridges. The map captures the fundamental geography of this Montana borderland, focusing on the essential water sources that have historically dictated land use and property boundaries in the high plains.
