2011 Map of Possum Run Creek

About this map

Coffee Creek and its many winding tributaries define this central Montana landscape in Fergus County. The hydrology of the region is punctuated by the Kingsbury Number 1 Dam, which manages water flow near Kingsbury Rd. The terrain is characterized by broad elevated plains like Alton Bench in the southeast, situated among a network of rural routes including N Denton Rd and Broadback Rd. Further north and west, the drainages of Possum Run Creek and Arrow Creek carve through the prairie, illustrating the drainage patterns essential to the local ranching and agricultural economy. This topographic record reflects the sparse, functional layout of the high plains where infrastructure is built primarily around water management and connecting isolated properties.
