About this map

Choteau serves as the focal point of this Teton County landscape, situated where the Teton River flows through the high plains. The town's grid is well-defined by landmarks like the Choteau Cem and the Choteau Airport, while the nearby Choteau Junction marks a key intersection for regional travel. The surrounding terrain is characterized by distinctive geological formations, including the prominent Priest Butte and Rattlesnake Butte to the southeast, which rise sharply above the river valley.

Water management is central to the area's development, evidenced by an intricate system of waterways like the S-T Canal and Cascade Canal. These irrigation features, alongside Deep Cr and Spring Cr, support the agricultural operations that define the rural space between landmarks such as Truchot Hill and Burd Hill. The presence of Agency Spring and Agency Cr further underscores the historical importance of water sources in this part of Montana.
