1973 Map of Crow Springs

About this map

Crow Springs serves as the focal point of this Eastern Montana landscape, situated within a complex network of drainage basins and high plains terrain in McCone County. The area is defined by the divides between the Middle Fork Rock Creek and the McGuire Creek systems, illustrating the essential role of water sources like North Springs and Solhaug Spring in this arid region. The topography is marked by significant landmarks such as Bonhoff Butte, while the presence of scattered Storage Bins and a lone Grave suggests the sparse, remote nature of ranching and early settlement life during the early 1970s. Industrial and agricultural utility is further evidenced by a recorded Drill Hole and numerous named coulees, including Antelope Coulee and Heagy Coulee, which channel seasonal runoff through the undulating prairie.
