2011 Map of Hudiburgh Reservoir NW

About this map

Howard Dam serves as a central landmark in this ranching region of McCone County, capturing the remote character of eastern Montana. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Cow Creek and Duck Creek, which carve through the terrain and dictate the local road network. Rural routes such as Thorgaard Rd and Stoney Rd provide the primary access to this sparsely populated area, following the natural contours of the drainages. This map illustrates the vital role of water management in a semi-arid environment, where named dams and seasonal creeks are the focal points of land use and navigation.
