2014 Map of Divide School

About this map

Divide School stands as a focal point in this remote corner of southeastern Montana, situated precisely along the border of Custer and Powder River counties. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of seasonal drainage patterns, where Sand Cr and Beer Cr carve through the terrain. This topographic study reveals the sparse infrastructure of the region during the early 21st century, dominated by ranching and local water management features like Witcher Reservoir. The winding path of MT-59 provides the primary transit corridor through this section of the state, connecting isolated landmarks such as Road Cr and Big Bobcat Cr to the larger regional network. The map captures the quiet, agrarian character of the High Plains, where human imprints are limited to vital schools and water sources.
