2024 Map of Lacey Gulch

About this map

Lacey Gulch defines this section of the Montana landscape, where the border between Rosebud and Big Horn counties cuts through a complex network of drainages and ridgelines. The area is characterized by seasonal waterways and named draws that have likely served as landmarks for generations of ranchers and land managers. Significant water features include Hanging Woman Creek in the northeast and Wrench Creek, which meanders across the central terrain. The road network is sparse, primarily consisting of Hanging Woman Creek Rd and Decker Rd, reflecting the remote, rural character of these high plains. Notable terrain features like Deadman Gulch and Van Meter Gulch suggest a landscape shaped by local history and topography, while several springs indicate the vital and scattered water sources necessary for life in this arid environment.
