2020 Map of Emond Ranch

About this map

Emond Ranch stands as the central landmark in this portion of Phillips County, Montana, situated amidst a landscape defined by seasonal drainage and ranching infrastructure. The terrain is deeply inscribed by a series of coulees, including the evocative Lonesome Coulee and Alkali Coulee, which channel water toward Beaver Creek in the north or south into the headwaters of First Cr. This 2020 map documents the modern rural network of the region, where gravel and local roads like Ereaux Rd and Regina Rd follow the section lines of the Public Land Survey System, specifically across townships T26N R29E and T25N R30E. The mapping reveals the persistence of isolated ranching outposts in the American West, where small seasonal features like Tank Coulee remain critical identifiers for navigation and land management.
