About this map

Graveyard Hill and the surrounding terrain of Prairie County define this stretch of Montana ranchland. The landscape is marked by a network of drainage features including Kelly Draw, Maggie Draw, and Pine Hill Draw, all of which feed into the meandering course of Cedar Creek. Water management is central to the area's utility, evidenced by a series of small-scale reservoirs and infrastructure like the Little Gertison Dam at Little Garrison Reservoir and the JJ Blakenship Number 3 Dam.

Elevated landmarks such as Rattlesnake Butte, Pine Hill, and the curiously named Mount McKinley provide navigational reference points across the high plains. Human activity is largely traced through rural routes like Anticline RD and Pine Unit RD, alongside irrigation efforts like the Gibson Ditch. This 2011 survey records a remote environment where topographical features and named water improvements are the primary indicators of land use and property history.
