2014 Map of Cinnamon Spring

About this map

Lewis & Clark National Forest encompasses the southwestern corner of this Wheatland County landscape, defined by the prominent Jack Arthur Ridge and the heights of Coffin Butte. This high-altitude terrain is a critical watershed for the headwaters of numerous drainages including Miller Cr, Spring Cr, and Cinnamon Cr. The map reveals a land utilized for water management and remote access, centered on the Martin and C Bar J Reservoir near the eastern boundary. The presence of the namesake Cinnamon Spring in the southwest highlights the importance of reliable water sources in this cattle-country environment. The road network is sparse, consisting of few established routes like Big Elk Rd and Leppink Rd that navigate the drainages of Big Elk Cr and Bear Cr, illustrating the vast, unpopulated nature of this portion of central Montana.
