About this map

The Yellowstone River anchors the southern boundary of this portion of Yellowstone County, where the river valley transitions into a series of drainages and upland ridges. The northern reaches are defined by the convergence of several waterways, including Pompeys Pillar Creek, Churn Dash Creek, and the West Fork creek system. This landscape reflects the rural Montana cattle and ranching country as it appeared in the late twentieth century, with topographic details highlighting the intricate network of coulees and breaks that shape the terrain. Scattered infrastructure such as a Well provides a glimpse into the essential water management required for land use in this semi-arid region. Further south, the meandering course of Rock Creek carves through the hills before approaching the broader floodplain of the river valley, illustrating the natural drainage patterns of the Yellowstone basin.
