2017 Map of East Butte

About this map

East Butte rises as a prominent landmark in this northern section of Blaine County, overlooking a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainage systems. The hydrology of the region is dominated by Wayne Cr and its tributaries, including the W Fork Wayne Cr and S Fork Wayne Cr, alongside the westward-reaching Forgey Cr and W Forgey Cr. These waterways carve through the terrain, illustrating the natural erosion patterns typical of the Montana plains. Human infrastructure is limited but strategically placed, with Hogeland Rd providing essential access along the eastern edge of the quadrangle. The inclusion of Box Spring in the northern reaches suggests the importance of reliable water sources in this environment, which is partitioned by the Rectangular Survey System into townships like t34n r22e and t35n r23e.
