About this map

Currant Creek and its associated tributaries carve a complex drainage pattern across this section of Golden Valley County, defined by the erosion of the Montana plains. The landscape is marked by the presence of Merrills Springs Creek and Twin Coulee, which suggest the historic importance of seasonal water sources for early ranching and transit. Human imprint on the land is represented by sparse but vital routes like Womans Pocket Rd and E Red Hill Rd, tracing the high ground between the coulees. In the southern reaches, the map records the course of Fivemile Creek, illustrating the characteristic wash-and-ridge topography of the region. This document captures the modern state of these rural corridors and watercourses, reflecting a landscape where land management and natural drainage systems remain the primary features.
