2021 Map of Negro Butte

About this map

Negro Butte stands as a prominent topographical feature in this section of the Powder River Basin, marking a landscape defined by its complex drainage systems. The terrain is deeply etched by ephemeral waterways including Culp Draw and Hood Draw, which channel seasonal runoff toward larger creek systems. The survey clearly delineates the hydraulic importance of Beaver Cr in the northern portion and Pumpkin Cr to the south, reflecting the fundamental ranching and grazing layout of the region. Transportation is primarily confined to established corridors like Beaver Creek Rd and Iberlin Rd, which facilitate movement across the remote border between Johnson and Campbell Counties. This map provides essential land-use data through the Public Land Survey System grids, identifying specific township sections like t47n r77w that are vital for local history and property research.
