About this map

The boundary between Toole County and Liberty County defines the eastern portion of this northern Montana landscape, where the drainage patterns of several major coulees dictate the rural layout. Significant water features such as Berkholder Reservoir and the Big Dam collect runoff in a terrain carved by the Big Coulee, Kinyon Coulee, and Antelope Coulee. The map shows a highly organized grid of section lines and gravel access roads characteristic of the region's agricultural and ranching heritage.

Local transport is facilitated by named routes such as Galata Rd, Gus Blaze Rd, and Strawberry Rd, which connect isolated sections. The presence of specialized infrastructure like the Gravel Pit Access Rd indicates the local extraction industry, while the naming of smaller features like Grandma Coulee and Fernell Coulee suggests long-standing family associations with these specific drainage basins.
