2017 Map of Waterhole Creek

About this map

The Little Missouri National Grassland dominates the eastern expanse of this landscape where the borders of Montana and North Dakota meet. This high plains terrain is defined by a dendritic drainage system including Waterhole Creek, Buffalo Creek, and Corral Creek, which cut through the undulating topography. A notable point for local history is the Fertile Prairie Cemetery, situated along the western edge of the grassland. The presence of the Buffalo Jump Trail and Oilwell Road indicates a land of mixed utility, where traditional cattle grazing in the national grassland coexists with energy infrastructure and historical transit routes across the Fallon, Slope, and Bowman county lines.
