About this map

Hanging Woman Creek and its many seasonal tributaries define this high-plains landscape along the border of Big Horn County, Montana, and Sheridan County, Wyoming. The drainage network is particularly dense here, featuring numerous named branching coulees such as Box Elder Draw, Antelope Draw, and Roundup Draw. This topography is characteristic of the Powder River Basin, where erosion has carved intricate patterns into the sedimentary layers of the northern Great Plains.

Evidence of local resource use and ranching infrastructure appears in features like Antelope Reservoir and Coal Mine Draw, the latter hinting at the region's underlying geology. Transportation across this divide is facilitated by Hanging Woman Road, which follows the primary watercourse. Other notable landmarks including Horsley Draw and Tiner David Draw provide specific points of reference for those tracing local land use or family holdings in this rural interstate corridor.
