2024 Map of Waco

About this map

The Yellowstone River cuts through this landscape, defining the northern border of a region shaped by coulees and high flats at the boundary of Yellowstone and Big Horn counties. The settlement of Waco sits along the river's southern bank, positioned near the Custer Frontage Rd and a corridor of transportation that follows the natural grade of the valley. To the north, the terrain levels out at Sevenmile Flat, while the southern reaches of the map climb toward Pine Ridge. This area is heavily dissected by drainage systems, including Automatic Creek, Bergum Coulee, and the headwaters of North Fork Mission Creek, illustrating a classic prairie-and-break topography where water has carved deep paths through the high plains.
