1965 Map of Mud Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The vast, arid plains of Butte County are defined here by a network of seasonal watercourses and remote ranching outposts. This ranching landscape is punctuated by landforms like Mud Buttes and Roundout, while the northern portion of the Belle Fourche Reservoir dominates the southern reach. The map captures a way of life centered on scattered family operations, including Kipfinger Ranch, Beale Ranch, and Hanley Ranch, which rely on the drainage basins of Owl Creek, Bitter Creek, and Wildcat Creek.
