1993 Map of Belltower Butte

About this map

Belltower Church sits at the center of this Montana landscape, where the arid high plains meet the western edge of the Custer National Forest. The map documents a sparsely populated ranching and forest environment characterized by dramatic geological formations like Belltower Butte and Chimney Rock. Water management is central to the area's utility, evidenced by the Dewdrop Reservoir and numerous drainages including Skull Creek and Calamount Creek. Local history is anchored by family-named landmarks such as the J Yates Ranch and Meyers, while a solitary Grave near the church provides a specific point of interest for genealogists. The presence of Tie Road and a Gravel Pit indicates the local infrastructure and industry within this section of Carter County during the early 1990s.
