About this map

Birch Creek winds through the heart of this landscape in Chouteau County, carving deep drainage patterns through a series of dramatic coulees and high plains. Compiled from mid-1970s aerial photography, this provisional record illustrates the intricate natural topography of the Montana plains before the digital mapping era. To the southwest, the prominent elevation of West Ridge overlooks the junction of several seasonal waterways, including the winding path of Chip Creek. The drainage of Sandstone Coulee further defines the southwestern corner of the sheet, highlighting the erosion-shaped terrain that characterizes this ranching and agricultural region. While the area is largely devoid of dense settlements, the placement of specific coulees and ridges provides essential landmarks for those tracing historical land use or topographic changes in the Missouri River watershed.
