1970 Map of Greasy Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Greasy Hill rises as a central landmark in this 1970 study of southeastern Montana's high plains. The landscape is defined by an intricate drainage system, notably the winding courses of Wolf Creek and Willow Creek, which dominate the eastern and southern portions of the sheet. Surveyed by the U.S. Geological Survey and USC&GS, the topography reveals a sparsely populated ranching environment where life is centered around the vital water sources of the North Fork Willow Creek and Groat Creek. Small-scale industrial activity and land management are evident through several scattered Drill Holes and a major Pipeline cutting across the southern terrain. The map captures the remote character of Carter County just before the mid-1970s, illustrating how the natural draws of East Fork Groat Creek and Sleep Creek dictate the local geography.
