The Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument anchors the southwest corner of this Montana landscape, preserving a terrain defined by the deeply eroded drainage systems of the Little Bighorn Valley. This 2024 survey detail reveals the intricate topography of the Big Horn County uplands, where intermittent waterways like Medicine Tail Creek and Custer Creek have carved a series of complex coulees and ridges. The map illustrates the geographical context of historical events through named features such as Medicine Tail Coulee and North Fork Reno Creek. The landscape transition from the high, dissected divides near Ash Creek down toward the valley floor demonstrates the challenging natural obstacles and observational vantages that characterized the regional movement in the late nineteenth century.
