2014 Map of Dugout Creek

About this map

The Missouri River carves a sweeping northern boundary across this Montana landscape, marking the transition between Roosevelt and Richland counties. This terrain is defined by a dense network of coulees and drainage systems that feed toward the river valley, reflecting the erosive forces characteristic of the high plains. Major watercourses like Hardscrabble Creek and its eastern branch, E Hardscrabble Creek, navigate through deeply contoured ridges, while Dugout Creek and Garden Coulee shape the southern reaches. This modern survey illustrates the enduring rural infrastructure of the region, where a grid of secondary routes such as CO Road 152 and CO Road 332 provides access through the expansive sections. The map serves as a detailed record of the physical geography and land divisions within the Fort Kipp District in the early 21st century.
