1966 Map of Threemile Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Custer National Forest dominates the southern half of this landscape, where the terrain transitions from rugged buttes into a network of drainage basins. The area's ranching and homesteading history is evidenced by numerous family-named water sources, such as Knudson Spring, McLennon Spring No 1, and Quebbeman Spring. These water points were critical for livestock in this arid portion of Powder River County, supporting the operations that once centered around landmarks like the Bottles Sch and Phillips Well.
