About this map

Rattlesnake Butte stands as a prominent landmark in this section of Yellowstone County, overlooking a landscape defined by an extensive network of irrigation and water management. The Billings Bench Water Association Canal winds through the central terrain, supporting the area's agricultural character alongside Rattlesnake Reservoir. The small settlement of Cline is situated in the southern portion of the quadrangle, serving as a focal point for the local rural community.

Waterways like Crooked Creek, Twelve Mile Creek, and Sevenmile Creek carve through the plains, while a grid of family-named roads such as Peterson Rd, Homer Davis Rd, and Nellie Christine Dr provides access to scattered homesteads and ranch lands. The map illustrates a modern rural Montana landscape where traditional grazing land is increasingly intersected by residential drives and local access roads.
