2017 Map of Huckins School

About this map

The Huckins School stands as a focal point in this 2017 study of rural Powder River County, where the Powder River carves a path through a landscape defined by deep draws and creek beds. The map details a complex drainage network including Pinto Cr, Bay Horse Cr, and Lone Tree Cr, which feed into the primary river valley. These watercourses are flanked by named topographic features such as Kelly Draw and Ellis Canyon, illustrating the varied elevations of the Montana ranchlands. Infrastructure is concentrated along a handful of established routes, most notably Moorhead Rd and Big Powder River E Rd. The inclusion of the Eureka Reservoir and numerous intermittent streams like Buttermilk Cr and Coal Bank Cr highlights the critical role of water management in this arid region of the High Plains.
