2011 Map of Volborg

About this map

The Volborg Post Office serves as the central hub of this eastern Montana ranching landscape, situated where several prominent drainages converge. The topography is defined by the winding path of Pumpkin Creek, which is joined by numerous tributaries including Prairie Dog Creek, Ranch Creek, and S L Creek. This network of seasonal waterways and coulees, such as Sand Coulee, illustrates the drainage patterns vital to livestock operations in Custer County. Transport across this open country relies on a few primary routes like Stacy-Sonnette Rd and Big Pumpkin Creek Rd. The presence of the Allen Number 6 Dam highlights the importance of water management in a region where creeks like Lone Tree Creek and Shelter Creek cross the arid plains.
