About this map

Lame Deer sits at the junction of Rosebud Cr and Lame Deer Cr, serving as a central hub in the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation. The settlement patterns reflect the influence of local hydrology, with Jimtown and Muddy positioned along these primary watercourses. The landscape is heavily defined by high-relief drainages such as Richard Coulee, Davidson Coulee, and Yellow Fox Gulch, which carve into the surrounding terrain.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Lame Deer Cem near the town center and trace early infrastructure like Cheyenne Ave and the Rosebud Creek Cut-Off Rd. The presence of reliable water sources like Isaac Rye Spring and Barb Wood Spring further explains the historical utility of this area. This survey documents the intersection of Rosebud and Big Horn counties, illustrating the modern rural layout of these communities.
