1967 Map of Lacey Gulch

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Rosebud and Big Horn counties meet along a surveyed boundary line in this high-plains landscape, where the drainage patterns of the Tongue River watershed are intricately mapped. The terrain is defined by a dense network of coulees and draws, including Lacey Gulch and Deadman Gulch, which feed into larger watercourses such as Wolf Creek and Hanging Woman Creek. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by the Cox Ranch in the northeast and a scattering of isolated springs that served as critical water points for livestock in this arid environment. The map details a transition from cattle ranching country to more complex topography, where Bad Land Gulch suggests the erosional character of the local geology. Transportation is limited to unimproved roads and a Jeep Trail, illustrating the remote nature of this Montana borderland during the late 1960s.
