About this map

Bears Paw Mountains define the southern horizon of this high-plains landscape, where the small settlement of Lloyd sits tucked near the base of Lloyd Butte. The terrain here is a complex arrangement of high divides and deep coulees, with Taylor Divide and Mans Head Rock serving as prominent landmarks for navigation across the open range. Drainage patterns are well-defined by intermittent waterways such as Snake Cr, Gold Cr, and Spring Cr, which have carved out features like Prairie Gulch and Jessen Coulee.

A sparse network of roads, including Lloyd Rd and Crown Butte Rd, connects the scattered ranching interests in this corner of Blaine County. The presence of multiple peaks named Crown Butte suggests a geologically distinct series of flat-topped formations that characterize the local topography. This 2020 record provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure and natural landforms that continue to shape life in northern Montana.
