About this map

Powder River meanders through this portion of Custer County, shaping a wide valley floor flanked by broken terrain and dry creek beds. This 2014 survey captures a landscape defined by its hydraulic patterns, where the main river channel is fed by a complex network of seasonal tributaries including Laney Creek, Horse Creek, and Sheep Creek. These waterways provide the primary orientation for the few established thoroughfares in the region, such as Horse Creek Rd and Trail Creek Rd.

In the southern reaches, Mizpah Creek and its associated road systems like Lower Mizpah Rd suggest a long-standing reliance on these natural corridors for movement through the Montana backcountry. The map clearly delineates the township and range boundaries of t7n r51e and its neighbors, illustrating the cadastral grid that governs this rural expanse where Strevell Creek and North Strevell Creek branch away from the main valley.
