2017 Map of Horse Creek

About this map

Pumpkin Cr winds through this reach of Custer County, shaping a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainage systems and high divides. The topography is dominated by distinct elevations such as Gravel Hill and Dug Long Hill, which overlook the convergence of several waterways including Dry Cr and Johnson Cr. This 2017 survey reveals the importance of water management in the region, centered on the Pine Hill Reservoir and the strategic Jack Creek Divide. The road network is sparse, with Tongue River Rd skirting the western edge and RD 538 providing access to the northern interior. This map provides a detailed view of the Public Land Survey System township and range boundaries that organize this section of Montana's ranching and watershed country.
