2011 Map of Cushman

About this map

Cushman sits south of the Musselshell River in Golden Valley County, serving as a focal point for the surrounding prairie landscape. The drainage network of the region is well-defined, featuring the winding paths of Ninemile Creek and Fivemile Creek, which feed into the primary river valley. To the north, Gerdts Dam and Ninemile Spring highlight local water management and natural resources in this arid environment. The road system, including Buffalo Trail Rd and 9 Mile Rd, follows the section lines of the rural grid, connecting remote homesteads and ranch lands. In the southern portion of the map, the terrain shifts toward the breaks of Big Coulee Creek, where the local relief becomes more pronounced. This survey provides a clear look at the intersection of water access and transportation that has shaped land use in central Montana.
