2020 Map of Pike Creek Hills East

About this map

Pike Creek Hills dominate the western portion of this Central Montana landscape, marking the high ground between the drainage basins of several significant local waterways. The map illustrates the sparsely settled character of the region where the borders of Fergus County and Petroleum County meet. Most of the terrain is defined by the winding paths of Flatwillow Creek, which flows eastward through the center of the sheet, and Little Wall Creek in the south. Higher elevations are characterized by features like Lamberts Bench, overlooking the northern drainage of Pike Creek. Access to this remote rangeland is provided by gravel routes such as Pike Creek Road and Upper Flatwillow Road, reflecting a landscape dedicated primarily to ranching and natural drainage patterns.
