2017 Map of Holmes Ranch

About this map

Holmes Ranch sits as a primary landmark in this section of the Big Horn Basin, a landscape defined by the intricate branching of the Deer Cr system. The terrain is marked by the high elevations of the Badger Hills to the south, with numerous seasonal and perennial watercourses like Coal Cr and Corral Cr carving through the township and range sections. The map illustrates a rural area where life and transport follow the natural contours of the land, primarily via Deer Creek Rd and Otter Rd. This 2017 survey shows the convergence of the N Fork Deer Cr and S Fork Deer Cr, providing a detailed look at the drainage patterns and land divisions that have shaped ranching and land use in this part of Montana.
