About this map

Sacred Heart Cem stands as a spiritual landmark in this northern Montana landscape, located near the intersection of Belgian Church Rd and Tower Rd. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent rises and water-carved coulees, including Belgian Hill, Telephone Hill, and Trunk Butte. These elevations overlook the Bullhead Valley and the wandering course of Bullhead Cr to the north, while the Dry Fork Marias River cuts across the southern reach of the survey area.

Agricultural infrastructure is visible through a network of irrigation channels such as C Canal and L Canal, which support the high plains surrounding Big Flat Coulee. The map details a rectilinear grid of rural routes like Messenger Rd, Frontier Rd, and Christiaens Rd, reflecting the enduring homesteading patterns of Pondera County. Significant drainage features including Schultz Coulee, Barber Coulee, and Ringwald Coulee further illustrate the complex hydrology of this prairie environment.
