2024 Map of Devils Pocket

About this map

Devils Pocket defines the central topography of this Wheatland County landscape, where the high point of Wild Horse Butte overlooks a drainage network shaped by Timber Creek and Fish Creek. The land is segmented by the Public Land Survey System, as indicated by the township and range lines of t7n r16e and t6n r16e. Transportation through this open terrain is provided by a small network of named thoroughfares including Red Bridge Rd, Cooney Rd, and Jp Rd, which connect the isolated ranching and grazing areas of central Montana. This contemporary survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the modern character of these drainages and buttes, providing clear detail on the elevation changes and seasonal watercourses that dictate the use of this rural territory.
