2020 Map of Box Elder

About this map

Box Elder serves as the primary settlement on this North-Central Montana landscape, situated near the boundary between Hill Co and Chouteau Co. The drainage patterns are defined by the meandering Big Sandy Creek and the smaller Boxelder Cr, which carve through the prairie terrain. Numerous coulees, including Jerome Coulee, Barneys Coulee, and Lonesome Lake Coulee, indicate the significant water erosion that has shaped the local topography over time. Small-scale water management is evident through the presence of Schmidt Reservoir and Grass Reservoir, which likely support the agricultural and ranching operations of the region. The road network is oriented around Broadway and Main St W, with rural access provided by routes such as Kremlin High Grade Rd and Drake Rd.
