About this map

The Yellowstone River winds through the heart of Treasure County, defining the agricultural and transport corridor of the Myers area. This high-plains landscape is characterized by its reliance on water management, evidenced by the Hysham Main Canal and the Hysham Re-Lift Canal that parallel the river to support local ranching and farming operations. The small settlement of Myers and the nearby Myers Siding reflect the historical connection between the river valley and rail transport.

Erosion and terrain features like Buckingham Coulee and several tributary systems, including Muggins Creek and Cowen Creek, break the northern plains. Infrastructure is concentrated near the water, with the Myers Bridge and Buckingham Coulee Bridge providing vital crossings. Notable landmarks like the Decock Number 3 Dam further highlight the human engineering required to manage water in this semi-arid region.
