About this map

The Missouri River forms the southern lifeline of this landscape along the Montana and North Dakota border, where it meets a complex network of drainage ravines including Snowden Coulee and Garden Coulee. In the late 1960s, this area was a critical junction of transportation and preservation, notably featuring the Fort Union Trading Post National Historic Site along the riverbank. The rail infrastructure of the Burlington Northern and Great Northern lines underscores the region's importance as a transit corridor. Higher ground is defined by the expansive Round Prairie and the evocative terrain of Hard Scrabble to the east. Genealogists and local historians will find value in the precise locations of the Mondak Cem and Westview Cem, while the small settlement at Snowden and the nearby Stiehl Landing Strip provide evidence of rural aviation and community life in the Missouri River Basin.
