2020 Map of Chapman

About this map

Chapman sits in the northeastern corner of this Phillips County landscape, situated near the intersection of the Turner Cutacross Rd and Woody Island Creek. The topography is defined by the complex drainage patterns of the Woody Island Coulee and Horseshoe Coulee, which carve through the high plains of northern Montana. This 2020 survey illustrates the remote character of the region, where section lines and dirt roads like Black Coulee Rd provide the primary human structure across townships T36N R27E and T35N R27E. The map detail highlights how seasonal watercourses and coulees dictate the placement of transportation routes and small outposts in this expansive ranching and prairie environment.
