2024 Map of Taylor Hills

About this map

Taylor Hills dominate the central landscape of this Carter County quadrangle, where a network of draws and seasonal creeks carves through the high plains. The southeastern corner of the map marks the site of Belltower, situated along Lone Tree Rd near the winding course of Boxelder Creek. The hydrology here is complex, defined by the Dead Boy Divide which separates the North Fork Dead Boy Creek drainage from northern-flowing waters like Big Ramme Creek and Buffalo Creek. This area illustrates a typical eastern Montana ranching landscape, where early transportation routes like McCabe Rd follow the natural contours of the land. The presence of features such as Keltner Draw and Horsetrack Draw highlights the erosion-carved terrain that has shaped settlement and movement in this part of the state.
