2017 Map of Hopley Creek South

About this map

The Musselshell River meanders across this Wheatland County landscape, defining the central hydrology of a region dominated by agricultural ranching and water management. Irrigation infrastructure is clearly visible through the presence of the Twodot Canal, which cuts across the northwestern portion of the map. The terrain is a network of drainages including Hopley Creek, Mexican-John Cr, and Milton Cr, which flow toward the river valley. The road network reflects the rural character of the area, with family and ranch names preserved in labels such as Capser Ranch Rd, Mexican John Rd, and Clydes Rd. These names provide a direct link to the land-use history and families that established the livestock and farming operations in this part of Montana.
