About this map

Spear Ranch and the winding drainage basins of south-central Montana define this landscape as it appeared in the early 21st century. The map centers on the intricate network of seasonal and permanent waterways that feed the region, including Thompson Creek and its tributary, Little Thompson Creek. These creek beds provide the primary logic for the local road system, with Thompson Creek Rd tracking the water's course through the center of the quadrangle.

Evidence of local ranching and water management is visible at Lafevers Pond Dam and along the southern reaches of Corral Creek and Dry Creek. To the north, the terrain is carved by Davis Creek and the Middle Fork Davis Creek, while Reno Creek Rd skirts the upper boundary. This document provides a high-resolution view of the rural infrastructure and natural hydrology in the Busby District, documenting property names and access routes like Kirby Rd and Corral Cr Rd that connect this portion of Big Horn County.
