About this map

Simons Butte stands as a prominent landmark in this eastern Montana landscape, where the border of Dawson and Prairie Counties meets. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of drainages and coulees, reflecting a high-plains topography shaped by intermittent water flow. Numerous named features like Roehl Coulee, Brown Coulee, and Bull Coulee cut through the land, indicating a geography long utilized by local ranchers for navigation and livestock management.

Transportation in this area relies on a system of remote corridors, including Cabin Creek Rd and Spring Creek Rd, which follow the natural contours of the various branches of Cabin Creek. The map details the complex hydraulic patterns of the region, from the Buckskin Gulch to the headwaters of W Fork Hay Cr, providing a clear record of the watershed and land divisions across Township 12 and 13 North.
