2020 Map of Fey Lakes

About this map

Gold Butte and the southern slopes of the Sweet Grass Hills define this high plains landscape along the international border in northern Montana. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of seasonal water bodies and named coulees, such as Dead Horse Coulee and Barnes Coulee, that drain toward the high-elevation basin. Numerous small lakes and named springs, including Fey Lakes, Swan Lake, and Ruby Johnson Lake, suggest a complex hydrological environment essential for the region's ranching economy.
