2024 Map of Spring Creek School

About this map

Nancy Russell Creek and its tributary, Dry Fork Nancy Russell Creek, carve through this central Garfield County landscape, illustrating a classic Montana drainage pattern of intermittent watercourses. The territory is defined by several prominent creek systems, including Spring Creek, Wolf Creek, and Indian Creek, which suggest the historical importance of water rights and grazing access in this remote ranching region. The modern road network is sparse, consisting of utilitarian routes like Burma Rd, Boxcar Rd, and the numerically designated 17356 Rd. These names often hint at the early 20th-century history of the area, where local infrastructure was frequently named for landmarks or rail-related features. This 2024 map provides a precise record of the current topography and section lines within the townships of T19N and T20N, preserving the names of local waterways that have likely guided land ownership for generations.
