2020 Map of Hailstone Butte

About this map

Hailstone Butte rises as a prominent landmark above the surrounding drainage basins of Hailstone Cr and Wilson Cr. This 2020 map reflects the expansive agricultural layout of the rural northern Great Plains, divided by a precise grid of section lines and gravel roads such as Co HWY 140. For local historians and genealogists, the map identifies key community burial grounds, including Saint Markus Cem in the north and Bluegrass Cem to the south. The terrain is defined by the high divides between creek beds, showing how early settlement patterns followed the natural flow of water through this high-prairie landscape where the boundaries of Oliver and Morton counties meet.
