About this map

Burnett Creek and its complex network of seasonal drainages define this portion of Valley County as it appeared in the mid-1970s. The landscape is characterized by a series of coulees and creeks that converge as they flow through the northern Great Plains, including Big Sage Creek, Willow Creek, and the uniquely named Badland Coulee. Human modification is sparse but evident at Desert Claim Reservoir and the Collins locality. The intricate topography of the Rock Creek Canyon area in the southwest and the winding path of Jensen Coulee in the northwest reflect a terrain shaped by erosion and water management in an arid environment. This provisional survey captures the distribution of section lines and unimproved roads that served local ranching interests before the era of modern digital mapping.
