About this map

Conrad serves as the focal point of this Pondera County landscape, situated amidst an intricate network of drainage coulees and irrigation infrastructure. The town's grid is well-defined by thoroughfares such as Sunset Blvd and S Main St, while the nearby Conrad Airport and Hillside Cem mark the outskirts of the settlement. The surrounding terrain is characterized by deep erosional features like Big Flat Coulee and Welch Coulee, which highlight the natural drainage patterns leading toward the Dry Fork Marias River.

Agricultural reliance on water management is evident through the presence of the G Canal, P-6 Canal, and P Canal, which cut across the high plains. This 2017 survey reflects the modern configuration of transportation and irrigation that sustains the local economy. Numerous family-named landmarks, such as Oliver Coulee and Sim Oliver Coulee, provide valuable data points for those tracing local land use and genealogical connections in this part of Montana.
