1984 Map of Gaff Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Little Missouri River meanders through this high plains landscape at the border of Carter and Crook counties, marking the boundary between Montana and Wyoming. The map documents a rugged terrain defined by significant drainage systems such as Government Canyon and Scoggin Draw, which feed into the larger river valley. Industrial activity in the early 1980s is centered around several extractive sites, specifically numerous Claypit labels scattered across the northern sections, suggesting a local reliance on bentonite or similar mineral resources. This survey captures the rural infrastructure of the era, from the network of unimproved roads to isolated water sources like Spring and Well. Named landmarks such as Holben Creek and Sawmill Draw provide specific points of interest for those tracing the history of land use and small-scale ranching along the Gaff Creek drainage.
