2014 Map of Andes

About this map

Andes serves as the central focal point in this portion of Richland County, characterized by a complex drainage system that defines the local topography. The landscape is carved by numerous watercourses and coulees, including Hardscrabble Cr and Garden Coulee to the north, while Timber Cr and Hay Coulee stretch across the central and southern sections. These natural features dictated the early settlement and transport patterns, as seen in the alignment of the county road network. The Andes Cem stands as a primary genealogical landmark for the area. The map illustrates the intersection of several townships, including t26n r55e and t26n r56e, providing a clear view of how land was partitioned for ranching and agricultural use in this corner of Montana.
