1957 Map of Lone Indian Butte

About this map

Lone Indian Butte stands as a prominent landmark in this section of Sweet Grass County, where the high-plains landscape is carved by numerous drainages and deep gulches. The terrain is defined by the Sweet Grass Creek valley and its many tributaries, reflecting a remote ranching and grazing environment at the foot of the mountains. Local history and ranching heritage are preserved in the naming of features such as Fahlgren Gulch, Barney Gulch, and Wullum Gulch, which likely honor the early homesteaders and families who worked this land.
