2024 Map of Bowmans Corners NE

About this map

Crown Butte Canal cuts across the northeastern corner of this drainage landscape, where the headwaters of Simms Creek diverge into several distinct branches. The terrain is defined by the convergence of the North Fork Simms Creek and the South Fork Simms Creek, which carve through the high ground of the Lewis and Clark and Cascade county line. This contemporary survey illustrates the modern management of water resources and rural access in the region, centered around the long-established ranching corridors that follow the natural contours of the land. Remote access is provided by a network of gravel-surfaced routes including Long Butte Rd and Upper Simms Creek Rd, which navigate the elevation changes near Anderson Coulee. The map provides a clear look at the Public Land Survey System grid across Townships 19 and 20 North, highlighting the continued importance of section lines in this rural western interior.
