2024 Map of Flat Top Butte SW

About this map

Tenmile Creek and Flat Creek wind through the dissected landscape of this Montana territory along the border of Prairie and Custer counties. This topographic study reflects the rural character of the region as it appeared in the early 21st century, defined by seasonal drainage systems and a sparse network of backroads. The presence of Little Whitney Creek Rd provides one of the few named navigational landmarks through the terrain, highlighting the isolation and scale of these eastern Montana grasslands. Geographers and researchers can trace the natural convergence of Coal Creek and Deep Creek, which dictate the local topography and historical land use patterns across this sparsely populated section of the state.
