2011 Map of Hilger NW

About this map

Salt Creek and its many branches define the topography of this Fergus County landscape, where the East Fork, Middle Fork, and West Fork converge in a complex drainage network. The area’s hydrological management is anchored by the Wicker Basket Number 2 Dam, a specific point of infrastructure in this high-plains terrain. In the southern reach, Boy Elder Creek cuts across the land, while a sparse network of rural routes like Thrill Hills Rd and Salt Creek Rd provides access to remote ranching or agricultural tracts. The map offers a precise look at these water-rights landmarks and named rural lanes, such as Jimmerson Ln and Christina W, which often represent local family histories or legacy homestead access points in this part of Montana.
