About this map

Killenbeck Reservoir and the Killenbeck Lake Dam anchor the northern landscape of this northeastern Montana territory. This area of Daniels County is defined by its rural grid and the winding paths of Butte Creek and Spring Creek, which cut through the open plains. The small community of Four Buttes sits to the east, positioned near the intersection of several local routes.

A network of named section roads, including Gilchrist Rd, Anderson Rd, and Ferestad Rd, provides access to the agricultural parcels that dominate the region. The drainage of Olson Coulee provides topographic variation in the central part of the quadrangle. These features show the late-twentieth-century water management and transportation infrastructure necessary for ranching and farming in this high-plains environment.
