Square Butte (Montana)

Square Butte is a name used for 11 buttes in the U.S. state of Montana. Two of the most prominent are located in Cascade County, Montana, about 22 miles (35 km) due west of Great Falls, and Chouteau County, Montana, about 50 miles (80 km) due east of Great Falls and about 15 miles (24 km) east of the Highwood Mountains. Charles Marion Russell, the noted Montana western artist, used both features as backgrounds in his paintings of Montana.
