About this map

The Milk River flows across the southern portion of this landscape, anchoring a region defined by extensive coulee systems and essential water sources. Along the Phillips Co Valley Co line, the topography is carved by numerous drainages such as Swanson Coulee, Bell Coulee, and Turnip Coulee. These features underscore the reliance on intermittent water in this part of Montana, further evidenced by the naming of various localized water points including Taylor Spring, North Spring, and Farmer Spring.

Remote crossings and rural infrastructure are highlighted by the Bjornberg Bridge and a network of gravel routes like Bjornberg Bridge Rd and Cache Creek Rd. The presence of McChesney Reservoir and several family-named coulees, such as Stevens Coulee and Bucher Coulee, points to the long-standing ranching and agricultural heritage of the area, where land use is dictated by the rugged breaks and creek forks of Middle Fork Cash Cr and W Fork Cash Cr.
