About this map

Miles City Cutoff traverses this corner of Carter County, Montana, cutting across a landscape defined by an intricate network of seasonal drainage and prairie waterways. The survey captures the ranching character of the region during the 1970s, documented through a series of significant creek systems including O Fallon Creek, Lone Tree Creek, and Hanley Creek. The terrain is marked by numerous water sources critical to local land use, from the East Fork Spring Creek to scattered features like a Flowing Well. These labels provide specific geographic anchors for researchers tracing historical land boundaries or the early paths of regional travel across the Montana plains. The presence of several Well and spring markers highlights the importance of water management in this arid environment, while elevation markers like BM 3246 and BM 3213 provide precise data points for the rolling topography.
