1973 Map of Saddle Horse Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Saddle Horse Butte stands as a prominent landmark in this Custer County landscape, overlooking a complex drainage network where Mizpah Creek meets several seasonal tributaries. The 1973 field-checked data reveals a sparse ranching environment defined by wide creek beds like Sand Creek and Deer Creek, which carve through the high plains. The presence of Anderson and the winding Powderville Road suggests the enduring routes of local transport in this part of southeastern Montana. Small-scale industrial activity is evidenced by a Gravel Pit located near the northern reaches of the Mizpah, while the terrain's numerous springs indicate the vital importance of water sources for livestock in an arid climate.
