2020 Map of Windy Butte

About this map

Windy Butte rises above the vast drainage system of the Poplar River in this survey of northeastern Montana. The landscape is defined by its seasonal watercourses, including Sage Cr and Assiniboine Cr, which carve through the high plains of the Poplar District. This topography reveals a largely undeveloped expanse within the Fort Peck Indian Reservation, where the drainage patterns of Give Out Morgan Cr and Long Cr dictate the layout of rural access roads like 2042 RD. The survey illustrates the intersection of Public Land Survey System townships such as t31n r49e and t31n r50e, providing a clear view of the territorial organization in this part of Roosevelt County. The lack of dense settlement highlights the enduring rural character of the Missouri River plateau as it appeared in the early twenty-first century.
