2014 Map of Hammond Draw SW

About this map

Rosebud Cr and its tributaries define the drainage patterns of this eastern Montana landscape, where the high plains meet deep incisions like Sand Coulee and Hay Coulee. The map details a quiet ranching and transit corridor, anchored by long-standing local landmarks such as Bean Cem and Brown Cem. These small rural cemeteries serve as vital genealogical markers in a region where settlements are sparse. Transportation through the territory relies on routes following the natural topography, including Rosebud Creek Rd and Cowcreek Rd, which link the various stream valleys. The hydrology of the area is further characterized by Greenleaf Cr, Miller Cr, and the S Fork Cow Cr, illustrating the complex network of seasonal and perennial watercourses that have shaped land use and property boundaries across Township 1 North, Range 43 East and surrounding sections.
