About this map

Indian Arrow sits in a landscape of winding drainage networks within Yellowstone County, characterized by a complex system of seasonal and perennial waterways. This 2011 survey illustrates how the local road network, including Indian Creek Rd and Stark Rd, follows the natural contours of the valley floors created by Indian Creek and its tributaries. The terrain is defined by distinct topographical markers such as Burnt Coulee and the convergence of Girl Creek with Squaw Crk.

Modern transportation corridors dominate the southern portion of the map, where the interstate highway system cuts through the drainage of Three Wolf Creek. The map provides a clear picture of rural land management in Montana, showing the intersection of isolated ranch roads like Milam Rd with the vast, open creek beds that define this portion of the Yellowstone River watershed. The prominence of Arrow Creek as a central geographic feature indicates its role as a primary water source for the surrounding high plains.
