About this map

Butte Creek Cem stands as a central genealogical landmark in this section of Garfield County, located just off Snow Creek Rd. The landscape is defined by a complex network of drainage systems, including the namesake Moonlight Creek and the meandering Smoky Butte Creek. These waterways, along with Butts Coulee and Vail Creek, have shaped the remote grazing and ranching terrain of central Montana.

Evidence of local travel and rural infrastructure is seen in the intersection of Brusett Rd and Weediner in the southern portion of the quadrangle. The map captures a largely open landscape punctuated by the transition between T19N and T20N survey boundaries, reflecting the enduring legacy of the Public Land Survey System in organizing this sparsely populated region. The presence of Lone Star Loop further suggests established routes through these high-plains coulees.
