About this map

The Powder River meanders across this portion of Powder River County, Montana, defining a landscape of deep drainages and tributary networks. This 2017 survey shows a region largely characterized by its hydrology, where named waterways like Wolf Creek and Hawkey Creek feed into the primary river valley. The topography is etched by numerous gulches and creeks, including the distinct Poker Jim Gulch and its companion stream, Poker Jim Creek.

Remote ranch roads and tracks provide the primary access through this territory, with W Powderville Road and Ellis Road navigating the breaks and ridges. The map captures the complex drainage systems of the high plains, from Wild Cat Creek in the west to Beer Creek in the northeast. Researchers can trace the path of the Little Pilgrim Creek and Pilgrim Creek in the southern reaches, providing a detailed view of the local watershed and rural land divisions.
