2011 Map of McKonkey Creek

About this map

Willow Creek meanders through this portion of Rosebud County, defining a landscape shaped by intermittent watercourses and ranching infrastructure. This high-plains environment is characterized by its drainage network, where Muggins Creek and McKonkey Creek converge toward larger basins. The presence of the Big Timber Livestock Number 1 Dam indicates the vital importance of water management for local agriculture and livestock in this arid Montana terrain. Topographic variations are marked by features such as Bone Coulee, providing a clear view of the erosion patterns typical of the region. The primary transportation artery, Ingomar Rd, cuts across the northern section, linking this sparsely populated ranching country to the small communities that dot the northern Montana plains.
