1958 Map of Fisher Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Lame Deer Strip Mine stands as a prominent industrial feature on the northwestern landscape of this Rosebud County region, illustrating the mid-century extraction activities within the Missouri River Basin. The terrain is deeply carved by a network of seasonal and perennial waters, including Soldier Gulch and Coal Creek, which feed into the South Fork and Alderson Creek. Named springs like Crazy Head Spring, Broken Jaw Spring, and Spang Spring suggest a landscape where reliable water sources were critical for both wildlife and human activity in the hills surrounding Fisher Butte. The intricate drainage patterns of Standing Elk Creek and White Buffalo Creek highlight the geological character of the area just before the turn of the 1960s, providing a clear record of the watershed and industrial footprint prior to further modern development.
