1971 Map of John Hen Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Gobblers Knob rises as a prominent landmark in this drainage-heavy landscape of eastern Montana, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of coulees and seasonal waterways. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the map reveals a remote ranching or resource extraction environment characterized by numerous water features including John Hen Creek, Cherry Creek, and Cottonwood Creek. The presence of scattered wells and a Drill Hole indicates subsurface exploration or water management in this arid stretch of Rosebud County. The map captures a moment when few improved roads reached these hills, instead relying on routes like the labeled Trail and unnamed fence-line tracks to navigate between the drainages of Dry Creek and Snider Creek.
