2020 Map of Jim Creek

About this map

The high plains of Central Montana meet at a triple point of county lines in this modern topographic study. Wheatland, Sweet Grass, and Golden Valley counties converge across a landscape defined by an intricate network of seasonal drainage and ranch access routes. Waterways like Fish Creek and Tony Creek carve deep into the terrain, while Jim Creek flows through the southern reaches. The map documents a sparsely populated ranching environment where infrastructure is limited to gravel routes such as Tony Creek Road and Red Skin Road. This survey provides a precise accounting of the hydrological system, including smaller tributaries like Potato Creek and Andrews Creek, which are critical for understanding the local topography and historical land use in this section of the Big Sky state.
