2014 Map of Leslie Creek

About this map

Haystack Butte and Two Tree Butte anchor the southern landscape of this Powder River County region, rising above a complex network of drainage basins. The area is defined by its numerous named watercourses, including Leslie Cr, Middle Cr, and Third Cr, which carve through the terrain as part of the local watershed. This 2014 survey documents the hydrography in detail, identifying specific water sources such as Leslie Spring and numbered technical markers like 03S49E21BCCB01 Spring. The primary artery for travel through this rural Montana expanse is Us-212, which cuts diagonally across the southwestern corner, connecting the remote drainage of Wiser Cr and Sixmile Cr to the wider region. The map provides a look at the township and range divisions that still dictate the rural land use and navigation of the high plains.
