2024 Map of Island Butte

About this map

Island Butte serves as a prominent landmark in this high-altitude landscape of Beaverhead County, where the eastern edges of the Beaverhead National Forest meet a complex network of seasonal drainages. The area is defined by its watershed patterns, with numerous forks and creeks such as North Fork Alkali Creek and South Fork Alkali Creek carving through the terrain. Evidence of long-standing cattle ranching and remote access is visible in the primitive road system, including the historic route of Medicine Lodge Rd and the path through Porcupine Canyon. The presence of Coyote Lake and various spring-fed streams like Crystal Creek suggest the critical importance of water management in this high-basin environment. This 2024 data reflects the contemporary state of these public lands, showing how modern topographical mapping continues to track the remote corridors of Meadow Creek Rd and Cabin Creek Rd.
