2012 Map of Moulton Creek

About this map

N Fork Little Missouri River and its various tributaries define this section of Carter County, Montana, as it appeared in the early 21st century. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, including Moulton Cr, Battle Cr, and the Gammon Prong, which carve through the high plains near the Wyoming border. This 2012 survey illustrates a sparsely populated ranching environment where the most significant landmarks are hydrological features and topographical points like Signal Hill. The presence of the Battle Creek Reservoir in the southeastern quadrant suggests local water management essential for livestock or agriculture in this arid region. The intricate web of local roads and 4WD tracks shown here indicates a remote area where transportation is closely tied to the natural drainage patterns of the Little Missouri watershed.
