About this map

Kleenburn stands as a focal point in this portion of Sheridan County, situated along the banks of the Tongue River. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of water management and natural drainages, including the Tongue River Ditch and numerous seasonal creeks such as Little Ash Cr, Slater Cr, and Hidden Water Cr. The terrain rises from the river valley into a series of draws and ridges, exemplified by the prominent Dan Draw north of the main settlements.

Local history and genealogy are preserved through the identification of the Monarch Cem and the Evangelical Lutheran Cem of Monarch, both located near the river and the primary road network of Sheridan Co RD 93. The map documents the border between Wyoming and Montana, capturing the ranching and agricultural character of the region. Transportation routes like Kleenburn RD and Acme RD link the scattered homesteads and landmarks within the township and range grid, providing a detailed view of the rural infrastructure of the early 21st century.
