2011 Map of Miller Creek NW

About this map

Iron Jaw Creek and Graveyard Creek define the drainage patterns of this Rosebud County landscape, illustrating a remote portion of eastern Montana. The area is characterized by an intricate network of intermittent streams and coulees, punctuated by the Hook Number 72 Dam on Coal Creek. This modest water management feature stands as the primary structural landmark in a terrain otherwise shaped by natural landforms such as Horton Hollow. To the south, the watershed expands with the presence of Hay Creek and Sweeney Creek, while Buffalo Creek feeds in from the west. The sparse infrastructure and lack of named settlements highlight the predominantly pastoral or open-range character of the region during this 2011 survey.
