Bears Paw Mountains define this high-altitude landscape in Blaine County, where peaks like Corrigan Mtn and the isolated Bird Tail Butte rise above the drainage basins of the Missouri River watershed. The terrain is deeply incised by a network of seasonal and perennial waterways, including Peoples Cr and its tributary S Br Peoples Cr, alongside Snake Cr, Willow Cr, and Gold Cr. A sparse network of local routes, such as Hungry Hollow Rd and Bentel Divide Rd, follows the natural contours of the ridges and valleys, providing access to these northern foothills. The map reveals a transition from the elevated gulches like Prairie Gulch to the broader drainage plains of Gap Cr and Hedges Cr, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Montana plains.
