About this map

Sand Buttes rise as a central landmark in this portion of Rosebud County, where the high plains landscape is deeply incised by a network of drainage coulees. Water management is a primary feature of the local geography, visible through the presence of Fisherman Dan Reservoir and Barley Reservoirs, which serve as vital catchments in an arid environment. The map details a complex system of seasonal waterways, including Coal Creek, Bull Creek, and the long winding paths of Fisherman Dan Coulee and Sand Butte Coulee. Access through this remote terrain is largely restricted to improved tracks such as Sand Creek Rd, which follows the southern drainage of Sand Creek. The township and range lines of T8N R43E and T9N R43E reveal a landscape divided by large-scale ranching or public land management, where the survival of cattle and wildlife depends on these scattered water improvements.
