2024 Map of Corrigan Mountain

About this map

Corrigan Mtn rises above a complex drainage system in this high-plains landscape of Blaine County. The map reveals a topography defined by the winding course of Peoples Creek and its many tributaries, including South Branch Peoples Creek and Willow Creek. This area is marked by the transition from open range to more prominent geological formations like Bird Tail Butte, which stands near the headwaters of Hedges Creek. A network of early rural routes, such as Lloyd Rd and Peoples Creek Rd, follows the natural contours of the land, tracing the path of least resistance through the coulees and gulches. The survey documents the essential relationship between reliable water sources like Snake Creek and the historical development of ranching and movement through this part of northern Montana.
