2014 Map of Christina

About this map

Christina and Suffolk serve as the primary anchors for this rural Fergus County landscape, where the grain-growing plains meet the complex drainages of central Montana. The terrain is defined by deep incisions like Freeze Out Coulee and Murphy Coulee, which channel runoff toward the meandering path of Dog Cr. This 2014 representation shows a road network adapted to the undulating topography, with routes like the Winifred Hwy and the aptly named Washboard Rd connecting scattered homesteads. Near the southern edge, Sheepherder Peak stands as a prominent high point, overlooking the headwaters of the S Fork Cottonwood Cr. The map captures the persistent agrarian character of the region, illustrating how section lines and drainage patterns continue to dictate the layout of modern Montana life.
