The high plains of Custer County are defined by a complex drainage network including Moon Cr and its tributaries, as seen in this 2014 survey. The area is characterized by the Public Land Survey System township and range divisions, such as t5n r46e and t5n r47e, which dictate the rural property boundaries and ranching layout of this Montana landscape. Water sources remain the primary landmarks for local navigation and land use, with Corral Cr and Plunket Cr cutting through the topography. Other smaller drainages like Thorpe Cr, Kennedy Cr, and Geddes Cr provide additional points of reference for those tracing historical land claims or geographical shifts in the early 21st century.
