Buffalo Gap National Grassland dominates this portion of Custer County, showing the intricate drainages and section-line road patterns of the western Great Plains. The landscape is defined by the winding course of French Cr and its tributaries, including S Fork French Cr and Red Shirt Cr. These waterways provide the primary orientation for the area's geography, cutting through a terrain marked by named features like Sheep Camp Draw and Shorty Draw. Transportation in this rural stretch is limited to local connectors such as Co HWY 18 and E French Creek Rd, which follow the natural contours of the creek beds. The map provides a precise look at the Public Land Survey System grid, including corners for townships such as t4s r8e and t4s r9e, offering a detailed view of land divisions within the national grassland.
