About this map

The Cayuse Hills define the northern horizon of this Montana landscape, where the headwaters of numerous drainages begin their descent toward the plains. The terrain is characterized by a complex network of seasonal and perennial waterways, including the Dry Fork Sweet Grass Creek, Middle Fork Sweet Grass Creek, and East Fork Sweet Grass Creek. This hydrological pattern suggests a land shaped by the erosive force of snowmelt and seasonal rains, supporting the ranching operations that rely on these intermittent flows.
