2024 Map of Harmon Butte

About this map

O'Fallon Creek and its many tributaries define this section of the Montana landscape, carving a complex drainage network through the high plains. The terrain is marked by the prominent Harmon Butte, a distinct geographic anchor in the northwest corner of the quadrangle. This 2024 survey captures the rural character of the border between Fallon County and Carter County, where the land is primarily organized by the Public Land Survey System. The map shows a sparse network of local transit, specifically Ismay Rd S and Willard Rd W, which provide the few overland connections across a territory dominated by seasonal waterways like Lame Jones Creek, Milk Creek, and South Fork Milk Creek. These drainage patterns indicate a landscape shaped by intermittent water flow, essential for the ranching and agricultural operations that define this region.
