About this map

Wagon Box Spring and the surrounding drainage network define this high-plains landscape along the border of Yellowstone and Big Horn counties. The terrain is marked by a series of north- and south-flowing seasonal waterways, including Kaiser Cr, Sand Cr, and Mill Cr, which cut through the uplifted topography of Pine Ridge. The cartography reveals a sparse, rural infrastructure where Pine Ridge Rd serves as the primary artery through the southern portion of the quadrangle.

Evidence of the region's ranching and water-resource history is found at named features like Lost Boy Cr and Rough Coulee. The map provides a precise view of the Public Land Survey System grid across T3N R31E and surrounding townships, illustrating how historical land divisions persist in the modern Montana landscape. This data is essential for researchers tracking land ownership and physical changes in the coulees and ridges of the northern plains.
