2011 Map of Brorson

About this map

Brorson (historical) serves as the focal point of this Eastern Montana landscape, where the agricultural traditions of Richland County meet modern energy extraction. The intersection of local county roads, such as County Rd-129 and County Rd-344, defines the historical movement through this prairie terrain. The influence of the Brorson Oil Field is evident near the center of the map, illustrating the region's industrial footprint alongside traditional water management features like Albin Dam and Coon Dam. Several waterways, including Brorson Creek and the North Fork First Hay Creek, create a dendritic drainage pattern across the high plains. This 2011 survey captures a specific moment in the evolution of this rural landscape, documenting the persistent name of Four Corners and the extensive network of farm-to-market roads that connect these isolated sites.
