2020 Map of Snider Hill

About this map

Snider Hill stands as a prominent landmark at the convergence of three state borders, marking the remote intersection of Fallon County, Montana, with the western edges of North Dakota and South Dakota. This 2020 survey illustrates a sparse, ranching-oriented landscape defined by drainage networks like Boxelder Creek and Sheep Cr. The topographic detail reveals how the high ground at Monument Butte dictates the flow of local seasonal waters, including the N Fork Coal Bank Cr and S Fork Coal Bank Cr. Human presence is traced through a minimal network of rural routes such as Webster Rd and the Horse Creek Trl, which navigate the complex county lines where Fallon, Bowman, Carter, and Harding counties meet. The map serves as a precise record of the tri-state boundary region, highlighting the physical isolation and specialized geography of the northern Great Plains.
