2014 Map of Holmes Ranch

About this map

Holmes Ranch serves as a central landmark within this portion of Big Horn County, situated in a landscape defined by the intricate drainages of the Deer Cr watershed. To the south, the Badger Hills provide significant topographic relief, overlooking a network of seasonal watercourses including Coal Cr and N Fork Deer Cr. The map captures the remote character of this ranching country, where transportation is limited to primary routes like Quietus Rd and the Deer Creek Divide Rd, which follow the natural contours of the high plains. The drainage patterns of S Fork Deer Cr and Corral Cr illustrate the erosion-carved terrain typical of the Montana borderlands, providing a clear record of the area's hydrology and land divisions across townships T8S and T9S.
