About this map

Hobo Coulee and Rose Coulee define this corner of Rosebud County, Montana, characterized by a complex network of intermittent drainages and ranching infrastructure. The landscape is shaped by the winding course of South Sunday Creek, which serves as a primary hydrological artery, joined by smaller tributaries like Louie and Scottie Creek and Coal Creek.

Water management is a central feature of this terrain, evidenced by numerous numbered dams such as Hook Number 31 Dam, Hook Number 27 Dam, and Hook Number 32 Dam. These small-scale impoundments and the Donald Reservoir reflect the necessity of water storage in this semi-arid region, while the presence of Bow and Arrow Creek underscores the traditional naming conventions of the northern plains landscape.
