About this map

Moyne sits in the southeastern corner of this Meagher County landscape, where the waters of Sixteenmile Cr flow through the drainage basin. This area is defined by a network of seasonal and perennial streams, including the winding paths of Battle Cr, Faulkner Cr, and Mayns Cr, which carve through the high-elevation terrain. The prominent landform of Black Butte Mtn rises in the northeast, serving as a significant landmark for the surrounding territory.

Transport and access are facilitated by a series of rural routes, most notably Sixteen Mile Rd, which traverses much of the quadrangle. Other established paths like Schendel Rd and Black Butte Rd connect the various drainage basins. The map illustrates a sparse, ranch-oriented settlement pattern typical of this part of Montana, where named features often reflect early local landholders, such as the drainage of Mike Day Cr and its namesake Mike Day Dr.
