1965 Map of Mc Ginnis Butte SE

About this map

The boundary between Garfield Co and Rosebud Co cuts across the northern reaches of this High Plains landscape, as it appeared in the mid-1960s. The terrain is defined by the drainage networks of several intermittent waterways, most notably McGinnis Creek and Short Creek, which have carved intricate contour patterns into the prairie. The map captures a transition point between upland plateaus and the valley basins, illustrating the sparse settlement and open grazing lands typical of this portion of eastern Montana. Other watercourses like Indian Creek and Little McGinnis Creek further illustrate the topographic relief, while solitary surveyor markers such as BM 3007 provide precise elevation data for researchers and land use historians tracking historical property lines and infrastructure development in this ranching country.
