About this map

Long Cr and its various tributaries carve through the drainages of Roosevelt County, Montana, in this remote section of the High Plains. The landscape is defined by its seasonal watercourses, including the north-flowing Boxelder Cr and the winding path of Little Badger Cr to the southeast. These geographic features dictate the sparse infrastructure of the region, where gravel and unimproved roads like Co Rd 1056 and 2042 Rd follow the contours of the terrain.

A notable hydrological feature is the 30N49E11BBCD01 Spring, located in the northern reaches of the quadrangle. This spring provides a rare point of year-round water in an area otherwise characterized by intermittent creek beds and deep coulees. For those studying the public land survey system, the map clearly delineates the intersections of townships t30n r49e, t30n r50e, t29n r49e, and t29n r50e, offering a precise view of how these interior Montana lands were organized.
