1980 Map of Terrell Creek

About this map

The Ekalaka Hills dominate the western landscape of this 1980 survey, marking a significant transition between the rolling drainage basins of Beaver Creek and the sheltered valleys within the Custer National Forest. This section of southeastern Montana is characterized by a high density of water sources, recorded through numerous family-named and topographic springs such as Flasted Spring, Sinrud Spring, and Johns Spring. These water points were critical for livestock and early ranching operations in a region where the network of ephemeral drainages like Terrell Creek and Collins Creek dictated movement and settlement. Distinctive geologic features like Chimney Rock and Red Hill provide essential vertical orientation across the ridgelines. Near the northern boundary, the presence of Limp and a Gravel Pit indicates localized infrastructure and material extraction, while the boundary between Carter County and Fallon County cuts across the northeastern corner of the map.
