Zempel Lake and the winding course of Big Porcupine Creek anchor this corner of Rosebud County, where the landscape is defined by a series of named coulees and private ranching operations. The terrain is marked by significant water management infrastructure, including the Zempel Dam and numerous private reservoirs such as Richardson Dam and the J Galt Number 10 Dam. These features illustrate the essential nature of water rights and storage in the semi-arid Montana high plains.
