2024 Map of Two Pine School

About this map

The rugged topography of Yellowstone County, Montana, is defined here by the intricate drainages of Canyon Creek and its major tributaries. The landscape is marked by a distinctive transition from the plateau-like terrain near Molt Rd in the north to the more complex branching of the North Fork Canyon Creek and South Fork Canyon Creek. Of particular interest to local historians and folklorists is the Calamity Jane Horse-Cache, a site name that ties the physical landscape to the regional lore of the Old West. Modern development and access are traced through a network of roads and trails with names that evoke the frontier past, such as Medicine Man Trl, Mule Train Ln, and Sands Trl. The map also documents water management in this arid environment, featuring the Cove Ditch and its relation to the surrounding creek systems.
