2020 Map of Harris Buttes

About this map

Harris Buttes and Wild Horse Mtn dominate the topography of this Custer County landscape, where the high ground is dissected by an intricate drainage system. This modern survey shows a region defined by its seasonal watercourses, including the northward flow of Pumpkin Cr and Harris Cr. The map reveals the township and range survey lines that still organize this part of Montana, dividing the land into clear sections across ranges such as t2n r49e and t3n r50e. While lacking major settlements, the map provides a look at the network of ranch roads and tracks that navigate between landmarks like Road Cr and Anderson Cr. The distribution of these labels suggests a landscape largely used for grazing and open-range management, where named peaks and creeks serve as the primary navigational anchors.
