2011 Map of Sheep Creek Camp

About this map

Sheep Creek Camp anchors this survey of central Montana ranch land, where the drainage networks of Rosebud County dictate the layout of roads and remote stations. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the East Fork Armells Creek and its convergence with tributaries like East Sevenmile Creek. This 2011 map documents a region where water management is vital for the local economy, evidenced by the Vassaus Number 7 Dam and the humorously named On Golden Pond. Small, isolated locales like Moon and the Flying X Camp represent the sparse settlement patterns typical of this high plains environment, providing a precise record of the road names and property landmarks used by contemporary residents and land managers.
