About this map

Rotten Grass Canyon dominates the southern landscape of this Big Horn County region, where the drainages of Rotten Grass Cr and Willow Cr carve through the high plains. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates a sparsely populated ranching environment defined by its complex topography and traditional land divisions, including t7s r32e and t8s r33e.

The presence of uniquely named terrain features like Christmas Tree Coulee and Ash Coulee suggests a landscape shaped by local identification of specific landmarks. To the north, Cooper Basin and Dry Soap Cr provide further geographic definition, while Good Luck Rd serves as one of the few primary access points through the shifting elevations. The inclusion of Packs the Hat Cr reflects the deep indigenous and local naming traditions of this Montana territory.
