2017 Map of Circle

About this map

Circle serves as the focal point of this Eastern Montana landscape, situated at the confluence of several regional drainages. The Redwater River flows northward past the town, joined by numerous seasonal watercourses including Horse Cr, Lone Tree Cr, and Buffalo Springs Cr. The layout of the area is defined by a strictly surveyed grid of section lines and gravel routes, such as McCune Creek Rd and Union Rd, which connect the town to outlying ranchlands. Local infrastructure is concentrated around the town's perimeter, where the Circle Town County Airport and Riverview Cem provide essential community services. The map captures the specialized topography of McCone County, where flat-topped divides separate deeply incised creek beds like Hell Cr and Lost Cr, illustrating the drainage patterns that have dictated settlement and road placement in this part of the plains.
