About this map

Hornbeck Lake and the smaller Duck Lake anchor this 2017 study of the northern Montana plains. The landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of W Savoy Cr and E Savoy Cr, which carve through the high prairie in Blaine County. This modern survey demonstrates the persistence of the Public Land Survey System, with township boundaries like t34n r24e and t35n r25e clearly demarcating the vast rangeland.

Remote county roads such as Turner Rd, Wayne Creek Rd, and Cherry Patch Rd follow the section lines, providing access to the isolated topographic features of the region. The map also records localized terrain features such as Lone Tree Coulee, reflecting a traditional naming convention that highlights specific landmarks in a relatively uniform prairie environment. This documentation is valuable for those tracing land ownership and the evolution of the road network in the Milk River region.
