2017 Map of Jack Creek NW

About this map

Moon Cr and its various tributaries define the hydrology of this Custer County landscape, where the terrain is marked by a complex system of drainages including E Fork Moon Cr and Thorpe Cr. The area is geographically organized by the Public Land Survey System into several townships, including t5n r46e and t6n r47e, reflecting the structured approach to land division in the American West. The winding Moon Creek Divide Rd provides the primary transit route through this section of Montana, tracing the high ground between watersheds. This 2017 survey details a landscape where seasonal waterways like Kennedy Cr, Geddes Cr, and Plunket Cr converge, illustrating the importance of local water sources to the regional topography and the historical layout of ranching or agricultural boundaries in the high plains.
