About this map

Bull Creek Butte dominates the central-eastern landscape of this Butte County terrain, where a complex network of seasonal drainages carves through the high plains. The drainage pattern is defined by the convergence of several systems, notably the winding paths of Boxelder Cr and Bull Cr, which navigate the elevation changes alongside Magpie Cr and Crow Cr.

Remote ranching infrastructure is visible through a sparse grid of named tracks, including Kiplinger Rd and Waite Rd. A specific point of transit, Crow Creek Xing, suggests a historically significant crossing point in an area where water management and seasonal flows dictate movement. The map captures the specialized geography of the northern plains, characterized by named coulees and creeks like Pearl Cr and Roundout Cr that shape the local ranching environment.
