About this map

The Little Wolf Mountains dominate the southwestern corner of this 2017 Rosebud County landscape, marking a transition into the more elevated terrain of the region. This portion of Montana is defined by a dense network of coulees and draws, including Lee Coulee, Richard Coulee, and the eponymous Rough Draw, which illustrate the complex drainage patterns feeding into the larger creek systems.

Water distribution is channeled through several major forks, notably E Fork Armells Cr, W Fork Armells Cr, and Slough Grass Cr. The lack of dense settlement names reflects the open, ranching-oriented character of the territory, where connectivity is maintained by local routes like Farley Loop Rd. The map provides a precise look at the township and range divisions, such as t1n r40e, which are fundamental to understanding land ownership and grazing rights in this part of the state.
