2017 Map of Bennett Lake NW

About this map

Rudolph Valley defines the southern landscape of this Phillips County terrain, where a network of coulees carves through the Montana plains. The drainage patterns of W Alkali Cr and Alkali Cr reveal the hydrological character of the region, flowing through a series of named depressions including Brown Coulee, Halfway Coulee, and Williams Coulee. This 2017 survey reflects the enduring cattle-country divisions of the Public Land Survey System, with township and range lines like t28n r29e and t29n r29e overlaying a sparsely settled expanse of wetlands and small basins. The presence of Rudolph Coulee in the southeast suggests a localized geographic naming tradition tied to the valley floor, providing a specific reference for those studying land use and topography in this corner of North Central Montana.
