About this map

The Missouri River forms the southern boundary of this landscape in northeastern Montana, marking the border between Roosevelt and Richland counties. The settlement of Calais sits along the Bia-1 corridor, a critical infrastructure link in this prairie region. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage systems including Box Elder Cr, Lake Cr, and the winding Lone Tree Cr, which flows toward the river through deeply etched coulees.

Evidence of water management in this arid environment is found at the Bertino Reservoir in the eastern portion of the quadrangle. Transportation is anchored by Us-2, which traverses the southern half of the map, and local routes like Slab Rd and Co Road 154. This 2014 survey documents the enduring spatial layout of rural Roosevelt County, where historical land divisions like t28n r53e and t29n r54e continue to organize the agricultural and tribal lands near the river.
