1986 Map of Nihill

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Nihill serves as the primary landmark in this ranching landscape of Wheatland County, where the plains of central Montana are defined by a network of seasonal watercourses. The map documents the drainage patterns of the region, specifically how Blake Creek and Galloway Creek flow south to meet Roberts Creek, while Timber Creek carves a central path through the township. A notable water source in this arid environment is found at Living Springs, situated near the eastern boundary. The layout of the land is governed by the township lines of t10n and t9n, illustrating a late-20th-century spatial organization where wide-open rangeland is punctuated by isolated homesteads and the intermittent flow of Little Careless Creek.
