About this map

The Cayuse Hills define the high country of this Sweet Grass County landscape, where the terrain transitions between elevated plateaus and the drainage systems that feed into the local basins. In the mid-1980s, the small settlement of Simmons stood as a primary human landmark in this ranching-oriented region. The map reveals a land dissected by seasonal and perennial watercourses, including Antelope Creek and Cherry Creek in the north, and Sourdough Creek and Carson Creek to the south. Industry is minimal, represented primarily by a single Gravel Pit, suggesting the primary economic activity remained centered on the land itself. This provisional survey captures the distribution of section lines and unimproved roads that provided access to the more remote corners of the hills during this era.
