About this map

Lodge Grass serves as the primary hub of this landscape, situated within the boundary of the Crow Indian Reservation. The settlement is anchored by the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad line, which runs parallel to the meandering path of the Little Bighorn River. Local infrastructure is evident through the presence of an Indian Center, a Substation, and a Sewage Disposal Pond, reflecting the town's development in the late 1960s.

The surrounding terrain is a complex network of coulees and ridges drained by numerous waterways, including Grey Owl Creek, Lodge Grass Creek, and Slaughter Creek. Evidence of resource extraction appears in the form of several scattered drill holes and Oil Wells, while agricultural activity is supported by the Fortymile Canal in the southwestern corner. Landmarks such as Sioux Pass and a local cemetery provide points of reference for those tracing the historical geography of this Montana river valley.
