1969 Map of Hogan Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Bradshaw Ranch anchors this portion of eastern Montana, where the ranching economy is clearly etched into the drainage patterns of the Custer County landscape. The map highlights a series of small-scale water management features vital for livestock in a semi-arid environment, including Perkins Dam, Crowbar Dam, and the evocatively named Dead Cow Reservoir. These artificial catchments sit alongside a complex network of seasonal waterways such as Johannes Gulch, Norton Creek, and Locate Creek. The presence of Flowing Wells in the southern reaches further illustrates the ongoing efforts to secure reliable water sources for grazing land. This 1969 field-checked survey preserves the layout of these family-named landmarks and range improvements just as the modern agricultural infrastructure was taking its current form.
