2014 Map of Rattlesnake Hill

About this map

Rattlesnake Hill rises as a prominent landmark in this section of southeastern Montana, straddling the boundary between Custer County and Powder River County. The landscape is defined by an intricate drainage system, with Corral Creek and its tributary Little Corral Creek winding through the terrain toward the northeast. This 2014 survey illustrates the sparse, high-plains geography where water sources like Spring Creek, Horse Creek, and Cross S Creek are the primary features of the land. Human activity is centered on the established route of Powderville Rd in the north, showing the enduring reliance on these few arterial roads to connect the isolated ranchlands and townships that define the region's ranching economy.
