1997 Map of Square Butte

About this map

Little Missouri National Grassland dominates this portion of the Badlands, where the landscape is defined by the high elevations of Square Butte and the plateau of Sentinel Butte. The terrain is marked by a complex network of seasonal drainage, including Fisher Run and Garner Creek, reflecting a remote ranching and energy-producing environment. The Olstad Ranch stands as a rare named settlement in this sparsely populated region, surrounded by active industrial features such as the Square Butte Oil Field and scattered oil wells. This 1997 revision highlights the infrastructure of the late 20th-century energy economy, showing numerous drill holes and a significant Pipeline cutting across the southern terrain. Navigation through the breaks and buttes relies on local routes like South Square Butte Road and Garner Creek Road, which provide access to reliable livestock water sources like Sullys Water Hole.
