2024 Map of Carter

About this map

Carter serves as the central settlement in this agricultural landscape of Chouteau County, where the plains are deeply dissected by water-carved coulees. The town's grid, including Main and 3rd Ave, sits just north of the winding Bullhead Coulee. To the north, the Teton River meanders through a broad valley floor, while the Missouri River cuts through the southeastern corner of the quadrangle. The map captures a transition between traditional overland routes and modern infrastructure, evidenced by the historical path of the Whoop Up Trl crossing the northern sections. Local landmarks such as the Carter Cem and Davis School Rd provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracing family footprints in this rural district. The drainage patterns of Weatherwax Coulee and Black Coulee define the local topography, shaping the roads that connect remote homesteads to the rail-aligned core of Carter.
