2017 Map of Evans

About this map

The Evans settlement serves as the focal point for this landscape in Cascade County, where the plains of central Montana begin their transition into the foothills. The terrain is defined by an intricate drainage system, with Sand Coulee Cr and its tributaries, including Middle Fork Sand Coulee Cr and E Fork Sand Coulee Cr, carving deep into the earth. To the south, the boundary of the Lewis & Clark National Forest encompasses more prominent topographical features like the distinctive Tiger Butte. This 2017 survey illustrates the intersection of public forest lands and private ranching territory, connected by a network of rural routes such as Evans Riceville Rd and Beckstrom Rd. Smaller watercourses like Half-Breed Cr and Bayes Coulee snake through the sections, tracing the natural contours of the high-country draws.
