2011 Map of Bull Mountain NW

About this map

Castle Butte rises above the drainage networks of south-central Montana, anchoring a landscape defined by its high-country watercourses and rural thoroughfares. This 2011 survey illustrates a sparsely populated section of Yellowstone County where cattle ranching and open-range land use dictate the layout of the land. Water management is central to the area's geography, with the branching systems of Hibbard Creek, Mill Creek, and Antelope Creek carving into the terrain. Cultural history is centered at the Castle Butte Cemetery, a primary landmark for local genealogy and regional history. The map traces the essential road network that connects these remote points, including Hibbard Creek Rd and Castle Butte Rd, providing a clear record of the intersection between physical geography and the enduring infrastructure of the Montana interior.
