2024 Map of Seventytwo Hills

About this map

The North Moccasin Mountains rise sharply in the southern portion of this central Montana landscape, marking a transition from the drainage basins of Willow Creek and Plum Creek into more varied terrain. This high-altitude topography is defined by significant landmarks like the Seventytwo Hills and the broad Seventytwo Bench, which likely historically served as orienting features for early travelers and ranchers. The area is characterized by a series of deep cuts including Bedrock Canyon, Sennett Canyon, and McClure Gulch, which channel seasonal runoff from the peaks. Local ranching and access routes are reflected in the modern road network, which includes Ming Coulee Rd and Guslander Rd, following the natural contours of the coulees and flats like Marshall Flat.
