2017 Map of Devils Run

About this map

The Belle Fourche River meanders across this high plains borderland where Montana meets Wyoming. This region is defined by a dendritic network of drainages, including Devils Run, Montana Cr, and Arkansas Cr, which carve through the arid terrain near Stoneville Flats. The landscape transitions from these low-lying watercourses to significant elevations at Green Mtn in the southern portion of the quadrangle. Industrial and local transit is represented by specialized routes such as Bentonite Rd and Bariod Rd, suggesting the importance of local mineral extraction in this remote part of Carter and Crook Counties. The map provides a precise look at the township and range survey lines that partitioned this wide-open territory, illustrating how geography and resource management dictated the sparse settlement patterns and road networks like Stoneville Rd during the early 21st century.
