2020 Map of Mildred NE

About this map

Shad Spring provides a vital focal point in this high plains landscape of Prairie County, where the drainage patterns of several intermittent creeks define the topography. The northern portion of the map is marked by the distinct geographical cuts of Plum Coulee and Pumpkin Coulee, while Lambing Draw suggests a history of livestock management in this ranching country. Access to this remote area is primarily served by Cabin Creek Rd, which skirts the northeastern corner. The remainder of the terrain is a complex network of ephemeral waterways including W Fork Hay Cr, Hay Cr, and McNaney Cr. The township and range lines of the Public Land Survey System form the primary human-imposed structure over the natural draws and coulees of the eastern Montana plains.
