About this map

American Fork and its southern tributary Spring Creek define the lower drainage of this landscape in Wheatland County. The terrain is structured by a series of north-south running creek beds including Lebo Creek, Milton Creek, and Labrie Creek, which cut through the high plains north of the Musselshell River valley. A small portion of Mud Creek enters the area at the northern edge.

Rural infrastructure is minimal, consisting primarily of section-line routes like Moonshine Road and Jones Road that serve the cattle ranching and dryland farming operations typical of this part of Montana. The map provides a clear look at the township and range divisions, specifically covering portions of T7N R14E, T7N R15E, T6N R14E, and T6N R15E, which are essential for property researchers and genealogists tracing early land claims and homesteads in the region.
