2017 Map of Pearl School

About this map

Pearl School serves as a lone institutional anchor in this rural corner of Big Horn County, situated near the intersection of Youngs Creek Rd and Co Rd 398. This high-plains landscape is defined by an intricate network of drainage and irrigation, essential for ranching operations in eastern Montana. Tributaries such as Youngs Cr and Squirrel Cr carve through the terrain, while man-made water management systems like Powers Brothers Ditch, Cormack Ditch, and Gladewater Ditch illustrate the historical effort to distribute water across the varied topography of Township 9 South. Local infrastructure is sparse, primarily consisting of unpaved ranch roads such as CX Ranch Rd that follow the contours of the coulees and creek beds.
