About this map

Goodman Creek and Beaver Creek define the drainage patterns of this Rosebud County landscape, illustrating a remote stretch of eastern Montana where water sources are vital landmarks. The topography is shaped by a network of seasonal coulees and intermittent streams, including Twelvemile Creek and East Cottonwood Creek, which carve through the high plains. Unlike more developed regions, this area is characterized by its reliance on specific water points such as Barrot Spring and various unnamed springs like 03N44E08DCAC01 Spring that anchor the local geography. Surface transportation is limited to established rural routes like Butte Creek Rd and Cherry Creek Rd, which follow the natural contours of the land. The map provides a detailed view of the township and range divisions, showing the survey lines for t4n r44e and t3n r43e that dictate land ownership and cattle grazing boundaries in this open-range country.
