2017 Map of Montague Butte

About this map

Montague Butte stands as a prominent landmark in this expanse of Eastern Montana, part of a landscape defined by isolated peaks and seasonal watercourses. The drainage patterns of the region are shaped by several major creeks, including Locate Cr and Archdale Cr, which cut through the high plains. Historically, the area is crossed by several distinctive routes such as the Terry Cut Across Rd, suggesting its role as a corridor for travel between early regional outposts. Elevations vary across the sheet from the heights of Henry Woods Mtn to the lower reaches of Norton Cr. The map details a remote section of Custer and Fallon Counties where the land remains largely open, marked by landmarks like Rattlesnake Butte and Twin Buttes that served as navigational points for generations.
