 Pryor Creek
Pryor Creek begins about fifty straight-line miles away, in Pryor Gap in the Pryor Mountains, but coils into nearly 100 miles of creek bottom by the time it empties into the Yellowstone.
Local lore maintains that Pryor traveled up this creek to the mountains, that he “drew the mountains and the creek on the map he was making,” and “decided to name them both in honor of himself.”
Besides, Clark didn’t cross the creek he named for Pryor until the day after they went their separate ways, so it may be he didn’t even know its name when he crossed it.
