1969 Map of Pennock Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Powder River meanders through this portion of Custer County, shaping a landscape defined by sharp coulees and intermittent stream beds. This late 1960s survey captures a rural Montana environment where water management is central to the land's utility, evidenced by several Flowing Wells dotting the drainages. In the southern reaches, the Trail Creek Sch and a nearby Grave mark the locations of early settlement and community life along the cattle-country trails. Movement across the terrain is traced through established paths like the Cut Trail and various unnamed jeep trails that navigate the breaks between Pennock Creek and Tiger Creek. Rising above the surrounding draws, Baldy Butte serves as a prominent natural landmark in a territory dissected by numerous small tributaries including Devils Hole Creek and Cottonwood Creek.
