2011 Map of Pine View

About this map

Buffalo Creek and its many tributaries, including Deadman Creek and East Buffalo Creek, carve through this section of Yellowstone County. The small settlement of Pine View sits at a junction of rural routes, reflecting the sparse, ranch-oriented development of the high plains in the early 21st century. Infrastructure is defined by water management and land access, as seen in the presence of Jones Dam and Brown Buffalo Number 1 Dam, which sit along the drainage of Buffalo Creek. The map documents a topography characterized by subtle shifts in elevation, with features like Donalds Coulee and the southern flow of Antelope Creek marking the landscape. This era of mapping shows a network of local roads such as Pineview Rd and Custer Pineview Rd that facilitate movement through this cattle country, where name-branded landmarks like dams often serve as the primary navigational anchors.
