About this map

Pine View and the surrounding rangelands of Yellowstone County are defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages and coulees. The landscape is etched by Buffalo Cr and its tributaries, including E Buffalo Cr and Deadman Cr, which carve through the high plains. The topography is marked by named geographic depressions such as Donalds Coulee and Kendall Coulee, illustrating the drainage patterns that have historically shaped land use in this part of Montana.

Human activity is concentrated along a sparse grid of rural routes, primarily Pineview Rd, Custer Pineview Rd, and Moore Rd. These roads provide the essential framework for accessing the vast sectioned parcels that define the public land survey system here. The map clearly delineates the administrative boundary between Musselshell and Yellowstone Counties, highlighting how these straight-line political borders bisect the winding paths of natural features like Antelope Cr and Hawk Cr.
