1982 Map of Potato Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Potato Buttes rise as the defining landmarks of this southeastern Montana landscape, anchoring a terrain shaped by an intricate network of seasonal drainages. During this era of the early 1980s, the region remains a sparsely settled expanse defined by ranching and traditional land use patterns. Water sources are the primary orientation points for travelers and residents, with Deep Creek and L O Creek cutting through the northern sections while East L O Creek and South Butte Creek define the southern drainage. The presence of the Flattops and a prominent Trail through the central portion of the quadrangle suggests the enduring importance of natural high-ground corridors in navigating the high plains of Carter County.
