About this map

The Crow Indian Reservation Boundary runs along the southern edge of this high-elevation landscape where Montana meets Wyoming. Defined by the dramatic rise of Big Bull Elk Ridge, the area is a complex network of canyons and plateaus. Much of the topography is dominated by the Garvin Basin, a massive natural depression shaped by seasonal drainages like Twentymile Creek and Gyp Creek.

Remote and sparsely settled during the mid-1960s, the terrain is traversable only by a scattered system of trails and jeep trails. These primitive routes connect vital water sources like Crystal Cave Spring and follow the winding courses of Trout Creek and Willow Creek. This map captures the intersection of tribal lands and state borders in an era before significant modern development, preserving the original place names of landmarks such as Two Point and the steep descent of Big Elk Canyon Creek.
