2011 Map of Woodhawk Hill

About this map

Woodhawk Hill and White Horse Butte anchor this high-plains landscape in Fergus County, Montana. The terrain is defined by a dendritic network of seasonal waterways and human-engineered water management, reflecting the necessities of ranching and agriculture in a semi-arid environment. Several small-scale dams, including Kermits Dam, Ford Irrigation Dam, and Othar Number 2 Dam, are distributed across the drainage basins of Woodhawk Creek and Taffy Creek. A modest network of rural thoroughfares such as Woodhawk Rd and Kjorlien Rd connects these points of interest. The presence of Hart Spring and Lambing Camp Creek suggests the area's ongoing importance for livestock management, providing a clear picture of the region's rural infrastructure at the start of the 2010s.
