2024 Map of Box Canyon Coulee

About this map

Black Buttes dominates the central landscape of this Rosebud County quadrangle, where the deeply dissected drainage patterns typical of eastern Montana’s high plains are on full display. The area is defined by a network of seasonal watercourses and topographic depressions including Lone Tree Coulee, Hammerstrom Coulee, and Box Canyon Coulee. These landforms reflect the erosion of the local plateaus, creating a complex series of ridges and draws that historically dictated the movement of livestock and the placement of early ranching tracks. Surveyed in the early 21st century, the map details the intricate hydrography of Sand Creek and Jack Creek, which serve as the primary drainage for the surrounding basins. Significant for understanding the township and range divisions of the region, the sheet spans several boundaries including t8n r42e and t8n r43e, marking the transition between localized coulees like Zumwalt Coulee and Pennick Coulee.
