About this map

Custer National Forest dominates much of this southeastern Montana landscape, where the high plains meet the intricate drainage systems of the Otter Cr valley. The map centers on the small community of Willow Crossing, a hub defined by the intersection of Us-212 and local routes like the Ponderosa Trl. This area in Powder River Co and Rosebud Co reveals a landscape managed for water and livestock, evidenced by numerous named springs and reservoirs such as Daily Reservoir and Lower Coal Cr Reservoir.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Willow Crossing Cem particularly significant as a landmark of local settlement. The terrain is marked by distinctive features like Thomas Draw and a network of creeks including Home Cr, Sawmill Cr, and Threemile Cr. The boundary between Rosebud Co and Powder River Co runs vertically through the western half of the sheet, illustrating the administrative divisions of this ranching and forest region.
