Sarpy Creek and its complex network of tributaries define this rural Big Horn County landscape at the turn of the decade. The area is characterized by the winding paths of the Middle Fork Sarpy Creek and East Fork Sarpy Creek, which converge to form the main stem as it flows northward through the high plains. This 2011 survey records the drainage patterns and primitive road network that connect isolated ranches and agricultural interests across the Big Horn area. To the southwest, the East Fork Tullock Creek carves a separate valley, while Little Hawk Creek appears in the southeast corner. The map provides a precise account of the drainage divides and topography that dictate land use in this sparsely populated region of Montana.
