2024 Map of Bainville SE

About this map

The Fort Union Trading Post National Historic Site anchors this landscape along the north bank of the Missouri River, marking the intersection of the Montana North Dakota state line and the junction of Roosevelt and Williams counties. The settlement of Snowden sits near the river's bend, connected by the Bainville-Snowden Rd and the local rail line. The terrain is defined by a series of deep drainages including Snowden Coulee, Riprap Coulee, and Golden Coulee, which cut through the high ground north of the river valley. Genealogists may find interest in the Mondak Cem near the state border and Westview Cem further north, while aviation history is represented by the isolated Stiehl Airport. Numerous seasonal waterways like Horse Tied Creek and Deer Creek reveal the complex drainage patterns of this high plains region.
