They lie at Шаблон:Convert[1] in the area between the southern Big Belt Mountains and the northern Bridger Range. The hills are bounded on the north by Sixteen Mile Creek (which begins in the Crazy Mountains), the first major tributary of the Missouri River. As they are in the rain shadow of the Boulder, Elkhorn, and Bull Mountains to the west, the Horseshoe Hills are notably dry, receiving Шаблон:Convert of precipitation annually. This is especially true on the southern and southeastern flanks, which are also in the rain shadow of the hills themselves.
