About this map

E Fork Armells Cr winds through the northern portion of this Rosebud County landscape, highlighting a region defined by its distinct drainage patterns and coulees. The map traces the varied topography of Miller Coulee, Lee Coulee, and Rape Coulee, which characterize the open ranching or mining country of southeast Montana. Transportation and infrastructure are concentrated near the Colstrip Airport, with Airport Rd and Castle Rock Rd providing the primary access through the townships.

Several specific water sources are identified, including the 01N40E02BABD01 Spring and others nearby, which were historically vital for land use in this arid environment. The southeastern corner of the quadrangle touches Rosebud Cr near Richard Coulee, marking the transition into the broader creek valley system. This 2014 survey captures the rural character and essential infrastructure of the area surrounding Colstrip.
