Four Buttes, received its name from the four unusual buttes that tower above the prairie west of town. These buttes were known as "Whiskey Buttes" because it was a rendezvous point for whiskey traders and Indians. Just east of Four Buttes visitors can find the Daniels County Museum & Pioneer Town out of Scobey which features 35 buildings that have been constructed or restored to depict turn-of-the-century town.
