About this map

Custer National Forest anchors the southern portion of this landscape, where the high point of Hayes Point overlooks a complex network of drainages and coulees along the border of Custer and Powder River counties. The terrain is defined by its water-carved geography, with Liscom Creek and Mullins Coulee cutting through the breaks and uplands.

Resource extraction and transit patterns are visible through scattered industrial markers such as Liscom Well, Coyote Well, and a Gas Well near the western edge. These features, connected by the primary thoroughfares of Liscom Road and Base Line Road, reveal a sparsely populated region dedicated to forest management and energy development. The inclusion of numerous watercourses like Garden Creek and The Breaks Coulee illustrates the intricate watershed system essential to this high-plains environment in the mid-1990s.
