About this map

Warrick sits as a primary point of reference in this high-plains landscape, where the Chouteau and Blaine county line divides the terrain. The map reveals a geography defined by its isolated peaks and seasonal water sources, featuring prominent landmarks like The Rock, Haystack Butte, and Rattlesnake Butte to the west, while Elkhorn Mtn rises in the east. The drainage network is complex, with Birch Cr and its various forks carving through the north, and Rhue Cr and Little Sand Cr feeding toward the south.

Water is a critical resource in this arid environment, evidenced by the numerous named springs scattered across the southern sections, including Cecil Spring, Polish Spring, and Gasparage Spring. Transportation relies on a network of unpaved routes such as Beaver Creek Rd and Warrick Rd, which trace the natural contours of the coulees and creek beds. This document provides a clear look at the sparsely populated ranching country and the transition between the rolling hills and the more significant mountain features of north-central Montana.
