About this map

The Bighorn River flows northward through this section of Big Horn County, defining the agricultural and industrial character of the valley north of Hardin. The landscape is shaped by complex water management, including the Lone Tree-Coulee Big Horn Low Line Canal, which supports the lowlands west of the river. To the south, industrial activity is noted near the Hardin Generation Station Rd, while the eastern terrain rises toward distinctive high points like Hive Butte.

Land use patterns are clearly visible through the network of coulees and creeks that drain the uplands, such as Chapman Coulee and Ninemile Cr. Genealogists and local historians can trace rural property access via an extensive grid of numbered and named routes, including Grant Marsh Loop and Webber Rd. The area around Ninemile Point and Arapooish Pond offers a detailed view of the river's riparian corridor and the small-scale topography of the surrounding plains.
