2014 Map of Foster

About this map

The Bighorn River carves a deep valley through this Big Horn County landscape, where the primary infrastructure focuses on water management for agriculture and livestock. A complex network of irrigation ditches, including the Big Horn Low Line Canal, Two Leggins Canal, and Wagon Box Canal, follows the river's contour to support local ranching and farming operations. The settlement of Foster and the locality of Kingley serve as anchors along the MT 47 corridor, which traces the western side of the valley. Significant terrain features like Two Leggins Tunnel and numerous named coulees, such as Deadmans Coulee and Wagon Box Coulee, indicate the varied topography east and west of the river. Local infrastructure is further defined by markers of rural life, from Community School Rd to the Gen Custer Fishing Access Rd, which provides river entry near the center of the quadrangle.
