1958 Map of Fisher Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation landscape is defined by its intricate drainage networks and early industrial activity in the late 1950s. Near the northwest corner, the Lame Deer Strip Mine indicates the region's mineral extraction history, while the surrounding terrain is carved by numerous seasonal and perennial watercourses. Named features such as Soldier Gulch and Broken Jaw Creek reflect a local nomenclature rooted in the physical challenges of the Rosebud County backcountry. The map reveals a land dependent on scattered water sources, documenting several vital points like Crazy Head Spring, White Horse Spring, and Station Spring. These springs and the winding course of Lame Deer Cr provided the essential framework for movement and land use before later developments altered the landscape. This 1978 photorevision also captures the complex topography surrounding the prominent Fisher Butte, illustrating the relationship between the elevated divides and the valleys of Alderson Creek.
