About this map

Crow Number 3 Dam and Crow Number 2 Dam punctuate the drainage systems in this part of Big Horn County, Montana, indicating the critical role of water management in this landscape. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including the three distinct branches of Tullock Creek: the East Fork Tullock Creek, Middle Fork Tullock Creek, and West Fork Tullock Creek. These watercourses create a dissected landscape that has likely shaped grazing and land use patterns for generations.

Transport is primarily facilitated by primitive routes like Davis Creek Rd, which follows the southern reaches near North Fork Davis Creek. The map documents a sparsely settled area where named features are largely tied to physical geography, such as the curiously named Deafy Creek, Teeth Creek, and Ash Creek. Local infrastructure is further highlighted by the Parkers Pond Dam in the southeast corner, serving as a localized point of interest for researchers tracking small-scale improvements on the land during the early twenty-first century.
