About this map

The rolling plains of Fergus County, Montana, are defined by a network of drainage systems feeding the larger Missouri River basin. This 1986 provisional survey reveals the detailed contours of the open range, where South Fork Bear Creek and Brickyard Creek carve subtle paths across the prairie landscape. The topographic data, based on early 1980s aerial photography, highlights the importance of seasonal water sources like Fords Creek in this semi-arid environment. These creek beds and their surrounding sections provide a look at the land division patterns within Townships 16 and 17 North, illustrating the vast, open character of the central Montana landscape before more modern developments may have altered the local hydrology or fencing lines.
