2020 Map of Powderville

About this map

Powderville sits at a crossroads in the southeast corner of this Montana landscape, where the Powder River carves a broad valley through the high plains. The settlement is anchored by the historic Boothill Cem, a name that evokes the frontier era of the American West. The terrain is defined by dramatic landforms such as Chimney Butte and Soldiers Mt, which rise above a network of drainages including Meadow Cr, Stump Cr, and the descriptively named Flintheart Draw. Local travel is dictated by the river and the surrounding ridges, with Powderville Rd and Ekalaka Rd serving as the primary connectors through the township lines of t1s r53e and t1n r54e. The boundary between Custer and Powder River Counties bisects the northern half of the area, marking a political division across a visually contiguous landscape of creek beds and draws.
