About this map

The Sweet Grass Hills dominate this section of Liberty County, Montana, punctuated by the high elevations of Mt Lebanon and East Butte. This area of the northern high plains is defined by its dramatic geologic formations, including landmarks such as the Devils Chimney and the Bear Tooth. The landscape is etched by a series of distinct drainages and coulees, including McTosh Coulee, Snoose Coulee, and Scotch Coulee, which channel water toward creeks like Tootsie Cr and Government Cr.

Evidence of rural development and ranching history is visible through the established grid of section lines and gravel roads. Local travel and access are facilitated by Hill School Rd, Windy Ridge Rd, and Little Sage Rd. These routes connect the isolated topography of McGuire Hill to the broader agricultural lands of the T35N and T36N townships, where modern ranching footprints coexist with names that evoke the early settlement era.
