2024 Map of Shell Butte

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

Shell Butte rises as the defining landmark in this corner of Fallon County, Montana, overseeing a high plains landscape etched by an intricate network of drainages. The local geography is shaped by the movement of water through the Spring Creek and Beaver Creek systems, which feed into the Fork of Beaver Creek. This map reveals a territory organized for transit and ranching, where modern infrastructure follows old-established pathways through the breaks. Named routes like Custer Camp Trl and Snake Trl suggest a long history of navigation across these coulees. Further south, the landscape is defined by the headwaters of Cabin Creek and Middle Fork Cabin Creek, alongside the remote Cannonball Creek, illustrating the detailed hydrography that has sustained this livestock-producing region into the twenty-first century.
