2011 Map of Circle Bridge

About this map

The Marias River meanders through the southern portion of this Liberty County landscape, flanked by a network of drainage channels including Basin Coulee and Dugout Coulee. This 2011 survey documents a sparsely populated agricultural and ranching region characterized by long stretches of gravel roads like Moffat Rd and Schumacher Ln. Two primary crossings, the Moffat Bridge and Circle Bridge, provide essential connectivity across the river, while the Erickson Cemetery serves as a quiet landmark for local genealogical interest. The northern terrain is defined by several more coulees, such as Layton Coulee and Larson Coulee, which feed into Cottonwood Creek. The map illustrates a rural Montana environment where transport and topography are inextricably linked to the seasonal flow of the river and its tributary coulees.
