About this map

Mt Antelope and the Big Sheep Mountains dominate this high-plains landscape along the border of McCone and Dawson counties. The area is defined by a complex drainage system where seasonal waterways such as W Fork Buffalo Springs Cr and Buffalo Springs Cr carve through the undulating terrain. High points like Circle Tower Hill provide vantage points over the dry coulees and draws that characterize this part of eastern Montana.

Resource management is evident through features like the Quick Reservoir, supporting a ranching economy where local transit relies on routes like Wittkopp Rd and RD 401. The geography is etched by numerous named drainages, including Deep Bottom, Hell Cr, and McCune Cr, which illustrate the erosion patterns of the northern Missouri River plateau. This topographic study documents the township and range divisions of the early 21st century, preserving the exact placement of local landmarks and water sources.
