About this map

Decker serves as the primary focal point in this portion of Big Horn County, situated where the high plains of southeastern Montana transition into the Badger Hills. The landscape is dominated by the Tongue River Reservoir, a significant impoundment of the Tongue River that stretches north through the quadrangle. This hydraulic system is fed by numerous drainages, including Pearson Creek, Spring Creek, and Pond Creek, which carve through the undulating terrain.

Transportation in the area is defined by a network of rural roads such as Co Rd 314, Decker Rd, and Otter Rd, which connect the small settlement to the surrounding ranching and mining lands. The map also identifies several specific groundwater sources, such as 08S40E34ACCA01 Spring, providing a precise look at the hydrologic resources vital to this arid region. The township and range lines, including t8s r40e and t9s r41e, offer a clear framework for land ownership and historical property research.
