About this map

The Big Sheep Mountains and the prominent High Point define this Montana landscape, where the high plains break into a complex network of coulees and seasonal drainages. Located in Dawson County, the area is marked by distinctive topographical features like Crazy Butte, which rises above a series of remote access roads including RD 405 and RD 401. This 2024 survey captures the township and range grid across six distinct sections, including t18n r50e and t19n r51e.

Water management and natural drainage are central to the terrain, with Sioux Creek, Olson Coulee, and Stilson Coulee cutting through the upland pastures. Named routes like the Pasture Trl and Aman S-N suggest a landscape primarily utilized for ranching and resource management. The map also traces the headwaters of several systems, including Berry Creek, Spring Creek, and Upper Sevenmile Creek, providing a detailed look at the hydrology of the South Fork Deer Creek watershed.
