West Butte and Mid Butte dominate this northern Montana landscape, rising above the surrounding plains of Blaine County. The region is defined by a network of seasonal watercourses and drainages, including the Northwest Fork Thirtymile Cr and the E Br Thirtymile Cr, which carve through the territory south of Cherry Ridge. This area shows the intersection of natural springs and ranching infrastructure, where water sources like Gidley Spring, Laporte Spring, and Campbell Spring provide critical resources in an arid environment. The map details the local road system, specifically Cherry Ridge Rd and Frigo Rd, which navigate the high ground and connect the isolated basins. Evidence of land use is visible in the naming of Corral Coulee, while the namesake Silver Bow Lake sits near the eastern boundary, adjacent to Woody Island Cr.
