About this map

Allard and Curry sit within a landscape defined by the intricate drainage of the Glendive Creek system in Dawson County. This 2011 survey reveals a quiet corner of eastern Montana where modern infrastructure, such as Frontage Rd and Road 300, intersects with historical resource extraction at the Burning Coal Mine. The terrain is deeply textured by erosion, most notably at Kinney Coulee and along the winding banks of Krug Creek and Griffith Creek.

Evidence of local water management appears in the southeast with the Hot Bar Number 1 Dam on Hodges Creek. The map provides a clear picture of the modern road network, including Allard Rd and Road 106, which connects these small settlements to the broader region. The confluence of these named creeks and coulees illustrates the complex hydrology that has shaped the area's grazing and mining history.
