2024 Map of Stacey

About this map

Custer National Forest lands dominate this part of Powder River County, where the settlement of Stacey sits at the junction of Stacey Creek and Little Pumpkin Creek. The landscape is a complex drainage system characterized by numerous springs and small reservoirs, such as Horse Pasture Reservoir and the Oil Well Reservoir, which provided essential water for ranching operations in this arid environment. The map highlights the ranching heritage of the area, specifically noting the Samuelson Ranch and several rural education sites including North Stacey School and Foster Creek School. High points like Liscom Butte and Hayes Point overlook a network of seasonal watercourses like Split Rock Creek and Whitetail Creek. This modern survey details the infrastructure of the Custer National Forest, including fire trails and forest roads that connect these isolated homesteads and landmarks within the Montana interior.
