2020 Map of Aloe

About this map

Aloe stands on the eastern edge of this Toole County landscape, where the High Plains are defined by an intricate network of drainage channels and small catchments. The terrain is dominated by a series of coulees—long, narrow valleys often dry—including Healy Coulee, Sand Coulee, and the prominently named Rocky Springs Coulee. Water management is central to this environment, as evidenced by McLean Reservoir and the seasonal Aloe Lake in the southeast. A grid of local roads, many bearing family names like Halverson Rd, Skryja Rd, and Maggie Ward, traces the township and range lines. These survey-based boundaries, such as t34n r3w, partition the land into large tracts typical of Montana's ranching and dryland farming traditions. The presence of the Rimrock Lease suggests the intersection of agricultural land use with local resource management.
