About this map

Butler Table dominates the central landscape of this western Dawson County survey, representing a high plateau overlooking a complex network of seasonal drainage. Flowing through the dissected terrain are several critical watercourses, including the North Fork Burns Creek, the Middle Fork Burns Creek, and the primary channel of Burns Creek itself. These waterways have carved deep coulees and draws into the earth, particularly visible along the northern edges where Mc Cone Heights rises. The map captures a moment in the early 1970s when this region remained primarily defined by its topographic extremes rather than settlement. Crossing the northern portion of the sheet is the boundary between Richland Co and Dawson Co, marking a quiet divide in the Montana ranchlands. Small landmarks like McCone Creek provide essential orientation in a landscape shaped by erosion and natural drainage patterns.
