About this map

Griffin Coulee and the drainage network of eastern Montana define this landscape in Rosebud County. The map details a complex hydrological system where W Sheep Cr and several forks of Armells Creek converge. These watercourses, including Armells Cr and the W Fork Armells Cr, are the primary landmarks in an area dominated by topographical relief rather than dense settlement.

Human activity is primarily marked by a handful of rural transit routes, such as W Fork Armells Creek Rd and Armells Cr Rd, which follow the natural contours of the stream valleys. The survey captures the transition between drainage basins, showing the headwaters of E Fork Reservation Cr on the western edge and the branches of W Cromo Cr to the south. This 2020 record serves as a precise guide to the contemporary cattle country and ranching landscape of the region.
