About this map

The Judith River meanders through this portion of Fergus County, Montana, providing a natural focus for the agricultural landscape. Near the center of the map lies the settlement of Ross Fork, a key location in the local geography where the eponymous Ross Fork Creek meets the river's drainage basin. The area is characterized by a network of ranching and colony roads, including Danvers Rd and Kolin Rd, which connect the scattered homesteads and agricultural operations.

To the east, the King Colony Ranch stands as a prominent local landmark near King Coulee and Little Rock Creek. This region, defined by its watercourses like Big Rock Creek, illustrates the enduring reliance on river systems for territory organization in central Montana. The map serves as a contemporary record of these long-established ranching communities and the named roads that bind them together.
