About this map

Brusett and the nearby Brusett Community Ch serve as the central points of this Garfield County landscape, captured during a 1983 field check. The area is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems, including Clay Coulee and Butts Coulee, which feed into larger watercourses like Seven Blackfoot Creek and the North Fork Lone Tree Creek. These geographic features dictate the settlement pattern, where infrastructure is sparse and focused around the agricultural requirements of the region.

Visible Grain Tanks situated near Grain Tanks and localized wells suggest a landscape primarily dedicated to ranching and dryland farming. Notable elevations like Smoky Butte provide the primary landmarks in a terrain characterized by its rolling breaks and coulees. This provisional survey offers a clear look at the rural Montana community before modern developments, preserving the locations of local landmarks and water sources essential to the high plains economy.
