2024 Map of Twin Buttes

About this map

The landform of Twin Buttes anchor this Garfield County landscape, marking a terrain defined by deep coulees and intermittent drainage systems. The survey reveals a sparsely populated section of the Montana plains, where the Twin Buttes Rd provides the primary access route through a complex series of watercourses. The northern sections are drained by Bobcat Coulee and Meckel Coulee, while the southern portion of the quadrangle is defined by the Middle Fork Lodgepole Creek. This hydrographic network, including Union Creek and Haislett Creek, illustrates the erosional patterns of the regional geology. The map details the Public Land Survey System grid, dividing the territory into Townships 16 and 17 North across Ranges 33 and 34 East, capturing the quiet character of this rangeland in the modern era.
