2017 Map of Agawam North

About this map

The unincorporated settlement of Agawam sits near the southern boundary of this survey, a point of interest for those tracking the high plains of north-central Montana. The landscape is defined by the stark transition between the elevated Porter Bench and the intricate network of seasonal drainage channels, or coulees, that carve through the prairie. Water management is a primary feature of the region's agricultural footprint, evidenced by the presence of the Bynum Canal and C Canal, which divert resources across the Teton and Pondera county lines. These man-made waterways contrast with natural features like Pondera Coulee in the north and the multi-branched Farmers Coulee to the south. The road network follows the rigid Public Land Survey System grid, with named routes like Black Gold Rd and Oil Field Rd suggesting the local intersection of ranching and energy extraction.
