1973 Map of Harris Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Harris Buttes rise above a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainage systems in this part of Custer County. The terrain is marked by the presence of Wild Horse Mountain and numerous watercourses, including the north-flowing Pumpkin Creek and Chinnick Creek. The mapping reveals a rural Montana environment where land use appears primarily tied to the natural topography and water access. Significant drainages such as Anderson Creek and Harris Creek cut through the high ground, illustrating the erosional patterns of the region. A lone Drill Hole in the northeastern section provides a discrete indicator of subsurface exploration during this era. This 1970s survey captures the area just before the implementation of more modern satellite mapping techniques, preserving the precise topographic details of the Montana plains.
