2017 Map of Aloe

About this map

Aloe stands as the primary namesake settlement in this northern Montana landscape, situated amidst a complex network of coulees and drainage systems that define the local topography. The region is marked by significant water management features, including the McLean Reservoir and Aloe Lake, which collect runoff from the surrounding prairie. A distinct pattern of rural roads and land leases, such as the Rimrock Lease, Maggie Ward, and Gillespie Rd, suggests a history of cattle ranching and agricultural development across Toole County. The drainage patterns of Healy Coulee, Sand Coulee, and Spring Coulee illustrate the natural erosion of the plains, carving out the terrain between established township boundaries and creating a rugged environment for local homesteads and transportation routes.
