2014 Map of Pine Creek

About this map

The Little Powder River meanders northward through this portion of Powder River County, Montana, carving a central drainage basin flanked by a complex network of ephemeral creeks and named draws. Near the southern edge of the sheet, the small settlement of Biddle sits along the MT-59 highway, serving as a focal point for the surrounding ranching and agricultural landscape. The terrain is defined by its drainage patterns, with watercourses like Belle Cr, Watt Cr, and Little Bear Skull Cr feeding into the main river valley. Notable topographic landmarks such as Rocky Butte and the Bell Tower stand out against the dissected breaks. These features, along with deep incisions like Preacher Draw and Wolf Ravine, provide a detailed look at the rural geography of southeastern Montana. The map also delineates established local thoroughfares including Belle Creek Rd and Baking-Powder Rd, which connect these isolated homesteads and landmarks.
