About this map

American Fork meanders through the southern expanse of this Wheatland County landscape, reflecting the essential role of water in Montana's ranching country. The topography is defined by the drainage systems of Lebo Cr, Milton Cr, and Labrie Cr, which carve through the high plains. The map illustrates a contemporary rural infrastructure where long-established property lines of the Public Land Survey System, including t7n r14e and t6n r15e, dictate the modern road network.

Local transport routes like Lower Lebo Ranch Rd and Moonshine Rd provide access across the rolling breaks, connecting isolated homesteads to the wider region. Researchers can trace the intersection of historical land divisions and modern land use, from the banks of Mud Cr in the north to the southern reaches of Spring Cr. This document serves as a detailed record of the drainage patterns and secondary roads that sustain the agricultural economy of the Harlowton area.
