About this map

The rugged drainage systems of eastern Montana define this landscape, where the Prairie and Dawson County line bisects a network of seasonal watercourses and coulees. Diamond G Cr and Cottonwood Cr dominate the northern terrain, carving paths through the high plains before giving way to the southern drainages of Brackett Cr and Dry Cr. This area is characterized by its sparse human infrastructure, with movement limited to remote corridors like Bad Route Rd and O'Neill Rd.

The topography is deeply etched by McQuoid Coulee and Dickoff Coulee, illustrating the erosive power of the region's intermittent streams. These coulees, along with Dickoff Cr and Coal Cr, provide critical landmarks in a vast, open territory. The map serves as a primary record of the township and range divisions across T13N and T14N, essential for tracing land ownership and ranching boundaries in this part of the state.
