About this map

Amelia Poe stands as a prominent terrain feature in this high-plains landscape of McCone County, where a complex network of coulees and creeks defines the drainage of the Missouri River watershed. This 1983 provisional survey shows a region carved by seasonal watercourses, including the West Fork and Middle Fork of Remuda Creek. The inclusion of a remote Airstrip suggests the necessity of light aircraft for navigating these expansive rangelands. Transport in the early 1980s was limited to unimproved roads and trails that intersect at landmarks like Four Corners in the north. The drainage pattern is particularly intricate along Turtle Creek and Big Muddy Creek, illustrating the natural erosion processes that have shaped this portion of eastern Montana's prairie landscape.
