2020 Map of Corral Butte

About this map

Corral Butte and Big Peak dominate the high ground of this Eastern Montana landscape, marking a prominent divide in the drainages of Prairie and Custer counties. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of coulees and intermittent streams, where Miles Cr and Prairie Cr weave through the complex topography of the t9n r50e and t10n r50e townships. This area reflects the characteristic open-range drainage patterns of the region, with watercourses like Cottonwood Cr, Schlosser Cr, and Maggie Cr carving out the landscape's deep contours. The map captures a moment in the modern era of land management, illustrating the precise Public Land Survey System boundaries that define ranching and grazing tracts across this part of the state.
