2020 Map of Dutton Ranch

About this map

Dutton Ranch and Hill Ranch anchor this Garfield County landscape, illustrating the enduring ranching economy of eastern Montana. The terrain is defined by a dense network of coulees, including Jacobsen Coulee, Heinecke Coulee, and Tripp Coulee, which channel seasonal runoff toward larger drainages like Fish Cr and Sage Hen Cr. These geological features, alongside Gumbo Ridge, dictate the placement of roads and homesteads in a region where water sources such as Mud Springs and Breed Springs are critical landmarks. The map documents the Public Land Survey System grid across townships T13N and T14N, showing how section lines and fence boundaries interact with the winding path of Little Breed Cr.
