About this map

The Yellowstone River corridor defines the landscape of this Park County region, where the small communities of Pray and Chicory sit alongside the water and rail infrastructure. Transport and communication are centered at the Pray Post Office, the Pray Siding, and the Flying Y Ranch Airport, reflecting a mix of rural ranching and essential services. Genealogical interest is anchored by the Nesbit Cemetery located in the northern reaches near Dry Creek.

The map reveals a transition into recreation-focused land use during the early 21st century, evidenced by numerous public access points such as the Chicory Sportsmans Access, Paradise Recreation Area, and Yellowstone Edge RV Park. Large tributaries like Mill Creek and Eightmile Creek drain the surrounding terrain, which rises toward Antelope Butte. A network of named local roads, including Old Yellowstone Trl N and Mill Creek Rd, connects the dispersed residential pockets across the river valley.
