1971 Map of Hammond Draw SW

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Rosebud Creek winds through this sparsely settled corner of Rosebud County, providing the primary drainage for a landscape shaped by deep coulees and seasonal watercourses. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the map reveals a pastoral territory where land use is concentrated along the creek bottoms and defined by the Montana Base Line. Local history is anchored by the presence of Bear Cem and Brown Cem, which stand as small but significant markers of early ranching families and homesteaders in the area. Evidence of resource exploration and local industry appears in the form of a Gravel Pit and scattered Drill Hole locations. The terrain is further characterized by the confluence of numerous smaller tributaries such as Greenleaf Creek, Miller Creek, and Cow Creek, illustrating the complex drainage patterns essential to Montana's high plains ranching economy.
