1972 Map of Eagle Buttes SW

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Sherry Coulee and the winding drainage of Crow Coulee dominate the high plains of Chouteau County in this early 1970s topographic record. The landscape is characterized by its dramatic erosion patterns, where deep coulees cut through the flat agricultural benchlands typical of north-central Montana. Mapping by the Geological Survey during this era reveals the subtle topographic relief and the complex network of intermittent watercourses that defined the local hydrology before modern intensive land management. While the map is sparse in named settlements, the intricate contour work provides an essential record for understanding the natural drainage systems and terrain that dictated early ranching and homesteading patterns in this portion of the state.
