About this map

Black Canyon serves as a central landmark in this high-plains landscape within Carbon County, Montana. The drainage patterns here reveal a complex network of waterways, where the Middle Fork Fivemile Creek and North Fork Fivemile Creek converge as they navigate the arid terrain. The map details a transition from the narrow draws of the uplands to broader valleys, punctuated by isolated features such as Sand Spring in the northeast.

Transport routes and topographical contours follow the natural flow of the Bluewater Creek and its various tributaries, including the North Fork Bluewater Creek. Farther south, the terrain descends toward Frosty Jack Creek and Summit Creek, illustrating the remote ranching and grazing land character of the region. This 2011 survey provides a clear view of the water resources and landforms essential to the local environment.
