2014 Map of Lonesome Peak

About this map

The Powder River carves a winding path through this southeastern Montana landscape, joined by a dense network of tributaries including Bog Springs Cr and Baking Powder Cr. The terrain is defined by the prominent Lonesome Peak, which overlooks a complex system of ridges and gulches such as Deep Gulch Cr. This area of Powder River County remains largely pastoral and open, with cattle-country infrastructure indicated by the Garr Reservoir and several named access routes. Remote roads like Baking Powder Rd and Cache Creek Rd connect these isolated drainages. The convergence of the Boulder River and the main river channel highlights the importance of water management in this arid ranching environment, where local landmarks often take their names from the surrounding natural features and early settler camps.
