2011 Map of Sahara Hill

About this map

Sahara Hill rises above a high prairie landscape in Musselshell County, defined by a network of drainage systems and isolated ranch roads. The map highlights the headwaters and winding paths of several watercourses, most notably the central flow of Cameron Creek and the bifurcated North Fork Pole Creek and South Fork Pole Creek which converge to form Pole Creek in the northeast. This 2011 survey captures the area's rural transportation network, anchored by Cameron Creek Rd and the intersections of Ray Creek Rd near Stonehouse Canyon. The land use pattern is distinctly focused on the natural topography of the eastern Montana plains, where the names of small draws like Minerva Creek and Ray Creek signify the essential water sources that have historically shaped local land holdings and grazing territories.
