About this map

Custer National Forest dominates the western edge of this map, where the dramatic slopes of Face of the Mountain rise above the high plains. This region, straddling the border between Montana and Wyoming, is characterized by a series of prominent level plateaus such as Tolman Flat, Dilworth Bench, and Ruler Bench. These features are separated by a complex network of drainages including Wolf Creek and Gold Creek, which flow toward the eastern flats.

The presence of the Tolman Cem near the center of the sheet provides a tangible link to the area's early settlement history. The landscape is defined by its transition from the steep timbered forest lands to the open, arid benches. Water sources like Corner Spring and Three Corner Spring appear as vital points in the rugged terrain, while roads such as Ruby Creek Rd and Grove Creek Rd follow the natural contours of the draws and creek beds.
