About this map

Rotten Grass Creek meanders through the heart of this Big Horn County landscape, carving the prominent Rotten Grass Canyon as it flows toward the northwest. The terrain is defined by a network of seasonal drainages and named coulees, such as Christmas Tree Coulee in the southwest corner. Transportation in this rural expanse is limited to unpaved tracks, notably Good Luck Rd and Soup Creek Rd, which provide access across the high ground between the creek beds.

Dry Soap Creek and Packs the Hat Creek contribute to the complex hydrology of the region, feeding into larger systems like Willow Creek. This 2011 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures a landscape focused on the natural watercourses that have shaped the territory, offering a precise look at the drainage patterns and landforms that dictate movement and ranching potential in this part of Montana.
