2017 Map of Little Chalk Butte

About this map

Little Chalk Butte rises as a distinct landmark in this high-plains landscape of Garfield County, marking a terrain defined by deep coulees and seasonal watercourses. The local drainage network is shaped by Crow Rock Cr, Ash Cr, and the branches of Uall Cr, which carve through the dry Montana rangeland. The presence of Coal Mine Coulee in the northeast suggests the region's underlying geological history, while the curiously named Frozen Dog Coulee adds a layer of local vernacular to the northwest section. Human activity is recorded primarily through a sparse network of section-line roads and tracks, including Uall Rd and Sutherland Rd, which connect remote ranching interests and water sources like Mud Springs. This 2017 survey provides a high-resolution view of the township and range divisions across this sparsely populated corner of the state.
