2020 Map of Evans

About this map

Evans sits within a complex drainage network in Cascade County, where the southern reaches of the map climb into the Lewis & Clark National Forest. The landscape is defined by its deep coulees and gulches, including Bayes Coulee and Dicks Gulch, which channel seasonal water toward the larger Sand Coulee Cr. A network of rural routes, such as Evans Riceville Rd and Beckstrom Rd, connects the scattered homesteads and ranches of this high-plains terrain. The prominence of Tiger Butte provides a significant local landmark in the eastern portion of the sheet, overlooking the headwaters of Tiger Cr. This 2020 survey illustrates the modern configuration of boundaries between private ranch lands and the protected forest area, showing how local hydrology like Half Breed Cr and the Middle Fork Sand Coulee Cr continues to dictate the placement of roads and settlements.
