2017 Map of Armells

About this map

The tiny settlement of Armells serves as the focal point for thisFergus County landscape, situated where the E Fork Armells Cr meets the main branch of Armells Cr. The terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal and perennial drainage systems, including Middle Fork Armells Cr, Dry Armells Cr, and the appropriately named Badland Cr to the east. Modern road networks like Romundstad Rd and Horse Ranch Rd trace the path of earlier rural routes through the coulees and benchlands. The southern edge of the map transitions into more dramatic relief near Mitchell Canyon. This 2017 survey illustrates the persistent ranching character of the region, where family names are etched into the geography via roads like Irish Rd and Gilpatrick Ln, reflecting a legacy of settlement in this remote portion of Central Montana.
