About this map

The Devils Kitchen landform defines this central Montana landscape where the borders of Yellowstone and Treasure Counties meet. In this 2020 survey, the terrain is characterized by a complex network of seasonal drainages and coulees, reflecting a high-plains environment managed for water storage. Named reservoirs such as Horton Reservoir, Larsens Reservoir, and Teds Reservoir are scattered across the southeastern quads, serving as vital infrastructure for local ranching operations.

Evidence of historical land use and travel is visible in the network of rural routes like Allen Creek Rd, Butt Camp Rd, and Sumatra Rd. These roads follow the natural contours between significant topographical features like Sway Back and Winter Camp Coulee. The map also details the branching headwaters of Alkali Cr and various forks of Horse and Edwards Creeks, illustrating the intricate watershed patterns of this sparsely populated region.
