2024 Map of Hamen

About this map

Loweth and Bruno anchor the northern reaches of this Meagher County landscape, where the continental divide's influence dictates the flow of local waterways. This 2024 survey documents a critical drainage divide where the headwaters of the South Fork Smith River diverge from the Dry Fork Musselshell River and South Fork Musselshell River. The map illustrates a high-altitude ranching and watershed environment, marked by significant water management features like the Hamen Reservoir, Higgins Reservoir, and Lucas Reservoir. These reservoirs, connected by seasonal and perennial flows such as Woodson Creek and Sixteenmile Creek, support the scattered settlements in this high-country terrain.
