2024 Map of Spring Creek

About this map

The Little Missouri River meanders through the northwestern corner of this territory, carving a distinct corridor within the Little Missouri National Grassland. The landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of Spring Creek and Spring Coulee, which cut through the high plains of Slope County. This modern survey illustrates the enduring section-line road network that facilitates access across the grassland, including north-south routes like 160th Ave SW and 159th Ave SW. Further south, Rhame Rd provides a primary transit link through the varied terrain. The map provides a clear picture of contemporary land management within the national grassland, where the intersection of natural watercourses and the rigid township and range system—shown here through divisions like t136n r104w and t135n r103w—dictates the human footprint on the land.
