About this map

The settlement of Aloe anchors the eastern edge of this Toole County landscape, situated where the high plains are carved by an intricate network of drainage channels. The terrain is defined by its coulees, with Healy Coulee and Rocky Springs Coulee cutting through the prairie toward the lower elevations. Water management is a central theme of this rural environment, evidenced by the presence of McLean Reservoir and Aloe Lake near the township boundaries.

Local transportation and land use are reflected in the grid of named roads and leases, including Maggie Ward, Potter Rd, and the Rimrock Lease. These labels, alongside family-named routes like Skryja Rd and Halverson Rd, provide a window into the contemporary agricultural and ranching footprint of northern Montana. The map illustrates a sparse but structured rural network where natural features like Sand Coulee dictate the placement of human infrastructure.
