2021 Map of Charlie Creek

About this map

The drainage basins of Charlie Cr and its tributaries define this landscape in Dewey County, where the high plains are carved by seasonal watercourses. This modern survey illustrates the sparse, rural infrastructure typical of the region, anchored by the passage of BIA Hwy 8 and 261 Ave. The topography reveals the intricate network of the Tall Prairie Chicken Cr system, including both its W Br and E Br forks. In the southwestern portion of the map, the headwaters of E Br Rousseau Cr and the winding path of Fox Cr highlight the erosion patterns across the prairie. The lack of concentrated settlements underscores the vast, open nature of this territory, which remains dominated by ranching and natural drainage features.
