2017 Map of Miller Creek SW

About this map

Baldy Butte serves as a central topographical landmark in this 2017 survey of the borderlands between Rosebud and Custer counties. The landscape is defined by a dense network of intermittent watercourses, including the diverging paths of N Miller Cr and S Miller Cr that cut through the eastern townships. This modern topographic map illustrates the enduring isolation of the area, where human infrastructure is largely limited to unpaved access routes like Sweeney Creek Rd and Redstone Dr. The drainage patterns, from Sweeney Cr in the west to the headwaters of Pump Cr and Cow Cr in the south, provide a detailed look at the hydrology of the Big Horn Basin. For those tracking land use and ranching boundaries, the map clearly delineates the survey townships of t4n r44e and t4n r45e, showing the transition between these two prominent Montana counties.
