2024 Map of Buck Mountain

About this map

The high-elevation divide between Cottonwood Creek and the drainage of Schlosser Creek defines the landscape of the Blue Mountains in Custer County. Rising above the surrounding breaks, prominent summits like Buck Mtn, Baldy Peak, and Sunrise Peak provide essential orientation for this section of the state. The complex network of coulees and seasonal waterways, including the winding Cedar Canyon Creek and North Fork Smith Creek, reveals a terrain shaped by erosion and intermittent water flow. To the southwest, The Pine Hills stand as a distinct ecological and topographic landmark, while isolated water sources such as Log Spring indicate the critical locations that supported life in this semi-arid region. The township and range divisions of t8n r50e and t8n r51e underscore the systematic land survey that organized the eastern Montana prairie into manageable sections for ranching and resource management.
