About this map

The Yellowstone River cuts a wide path through this landscape, defining the northern geography as it flows past Sevenmile Flat. The small settlement of Waco sits along the southern bank, situated where the terrain begins its ascent into the broken ridges and coulees that characterize the southern half of the sheet. Transportation is anchored by the river corridor, with Custer Frontage Rd and other routes like Seven Mile Flat Rd following the natural contours of the valley floor.

Further south, the land rises toward Pine Ridge, marked by a complex network of drainages including Sawmill Coulee and Automatic Cr. The boundary between Yellowstone and Big Horn Counties runs through this upland area, where the terrain is dissected by numerous seasonal watercourses such as S Fork Mission Cr and N Fork Sorrel Horse Cr, illustrating the transition from the fertile river bottom to the high plains.
