1981 Map of Willard SE

About this map

Little Beaver Creek and its numerous tributaries dominate this southeastern Montana landscape in the early 1980s. The map reveals a high-plains terrain defined by seasonal water drainage patterns, including South Fork Duck Creek in the northwest and the winding path of Fletcher Creek to the south. The presence of several wells, including a specific Flowing Well in the southeast corner, suggests the critical importance of groundwater management for ranching in this arid environment. Smaller drainages like Bone Pile Creek and Hay Creek carve through the topography, illustrating the complex watershed system that feeds into the larger basins of Fallon County.
