1969 Map of Spring Draw

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Powder River carves a winding path through this sparsely settled corner of the Montana ranching country, crossing the boundary between Prairie Co and Custer Co. The landscape is defined by its water sources, with numerous Flowing Wells mapped along the river's floodplains and nearby drainages. A dense network of named coulees and creeks, including Swede Creek, Louie Creek, and Maggie Creek, feed into the main river channel, suggesting a rugged topography utilized for livestock grazing. Evidence of modern infrastructure appears in a single Pipeline cutting east-to-west across the northern townships. The nomenclature of features like Corral Creek and Coal Creek reflects the region's agricultural roots and geological character, while Spring Draw serves as a primary drainage system through the central portion of the quadrangle.
