2024 Map of Yablonski Ranch

About this map

West Blacktail Creek meanders across this Rosebud County landscape, defining the drainage patterns of a region shaped by high plains topography. This modern U.S. Geological Survey topographic study reveals a terrain of complex coulees and ridges, largely organized by the Public Land Survey System as seen in the prominent township boundaries like t11n r34e. The limited road network, consisting of thoroughfares such as Gumbo Butte Rd and N Ingomak Rd, highlights the sparse settlement and open grazing character of this part of Montana. In the southern reaches of the quadrangle, Rattlesnake Creek cuts through the undulating ground, providing a crucial water source for the local ranching economy. This map serves as a precise guide to the contemporary land divisions and water courses that have dictated land use in this area for generations.
