2014 Map of White Butte East

About this map

White Butte stands as a prominent landmark in this section of Hettinger County, characterized by a series of significant rises that define the local relief. The landscape is a network of drainage systems including Beaver Cr in the northeast and Thirtymile Cr cutting through the southern half, joined by the smaller Springs Cr. This 2014 survey reveals the persistent grid of the rural West, where a systematic network of section-line roads like 55th St SW and 92nd Ave SW organizes the high plains into manageable parcels. Between these routes, the terrain is marked by distinctive formations such as Campbell Butte and the Camel Buttes, providing a clear record of the physical geography used by generations of local ranchers and landowners to navigate this open country.
