2011 Map of Sawmill Creek
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
Fort Peck Lake dominates the northern reaches of this Garfield County landscape, where the Missouri River's impoundment creates a complex shoreline of branching coulees and deep inlets. The interior terrain is defined by an intricate drainage system, including Sawmill Creek and its branches, North Sawmill Creek and South Sawmill Creek, alongside Big Coulee Creek. This 2011 survey reveals a landscape largely shaped by ranching and small-scale water management, evidenced by the presence of Wilson Ranch. Local land use is further characterized by numerous small earthen structures, such as Harold Number 3 Dam, Loomis D Number 1 Dam, and Chuch Number 1 Dam. These features illustrate the essential nature of water catchment for agricultural sustainability in this portion of the Montana plains.
