2021 Map of Deers Ears Butte North

About this map

Deers Ears Butte stands as a prominent landmark in this high plains landscape within Butte County, anchoring a terrain defined by complex drainage networks. The northern reaches are shaped by the S Fork Moreau River, which is fed by several seasonal tributaries including Flat Cr and Horse Cr. This rural expanse is marked by the rectangular grid of the Public Land Survey System, with township lines for T13N and T12N dividing the area. Human presence is sparse, indicated primarily by a handful of established routes like Graf Rd and Ebk Rd that cut across the rangeland. The presence of numerous named drainages such as Warren Cr and Spring Cr suggests the vital importance of water management in this cattle-grazing territory during the early twenty-first century.
