2011 Map of Cap Rock

About this map

Cap Rock stands as a prominent landmark in this eastern Montana landscape, defining the topography of this corner of Fallon County. The area is characterized by a network of drainage systems and small-scale water management projects, including Rattlesnake Number 2 Dam, Larson Dam, and Virgil Larson Dam. These features suggest a history of water conservation and livestock management in a region defined by its creek beds and intermittent flows. The map traces the paths of Rattlesnake Creek, Cedar Creek, and the North Fork Cabin Creek, while a sparse network of roads like Beacon Hill Rd and Edge Hill Rd E provides access across the open terrain. This survey reflects the modern rural infrastructure of the early 21st century, focusing on the essential water and transportation links required for ranching operations.
