About this map

The industrial and agricultural corridors of Glacier County are documented here during a period of modern energy production and rural infrastructure maintenance. The Cut Bank Refinery stands as a primary landmark in the northwest, connected to the broader rail network by the Union Oil Company of California Spur. This industrial footprint is bisected by Old US Hwy 2, which carries travelers southeast toward the small roadside stop at Ethridge.

Away from the highway and rail lines, the landscape is defined by a grid of named rural routes, many reflecting local family names such as Sullivan Bridge Rd, Mrs Luedtke Rd, and Hjartarson Rd. Water sources remain vital to this high plains environment, anchored by Boru Spring and the drainage of Spring Coulee. These features illustrate the continued reliance on specific springs and coulees for land management in a region defined by its vast open spaces and hydrocarbon economy.
