About this map

Cameron Point stands as a prominent geographic landmark in this high plains landscape of Valley County, where the terrain is defined by the drainage systems of Porcupine Cr. This 2020 survey reveals a sparse network of section roads like Fuhrman Rd and Sand Rd that navigate the vast open ranges of the Frazer District. The hydrological character of the region is centered on the Middle Fork Porcupine Cr and W Fork Porcupine Cr, which carve through the coulees and hills of this northern Montana territory.

Water sources are critical features in this arid environment, evidenced by the named Calderwood Spring situated near the Calderwood Hills. The land is meticulously gridded by the Public Land Survey System, showing the townships of T32N and T33N. Features such as The Pass and Snow Coulee suggest a landscape where natural topography dictated the original travel routes through the breaks and uplands of the Missouri River watershed.
