About this map

Cow Face Hill stands as a central topographic feature in this section of the Montana landscape, marking the transition between the rolling uplands of Sweet Grass and Stillwater counties. The southern portion of the map is defined by the course of the Stillwater River, where numerous drainage systems including Trout Cr and Crazy Man Cr converge. This area is characterized by a network of named coulees and draws such as Elliot Draw, Cudney Draw, and Clark Draw, which illustrate the complex erosion patterns of the region.

Local transportation is facilitated by named routes like Stockade Rd and Cow Face Hill Rd, which navigate the various gulches and buttes. Small water bodies and springs, including Blueball Lake and Little Spring Cr, are vital landmarks in this high-plains environment. The map also captures the distinct elevation of Mud Butte and the winding path of E Bridger Cr in the northwest, providing a clear view of the water and land relationship in this part of Montana during the late 2010s.
