2020 Map of Flaherty Coulee

About this map

Flaherty Coulee and its neighboring drainage systems define this section of Daniels County, characterized by the deeply incised terrain typical of the northern Montana plains. This 2020 survey documents the watershed where Coal Cr and Butte Cr flow through the arid landscape, carving out significant features like Brockway Coulee and Martin Coulee. The map provides a detailed view of the rural infrastructure in this border region, showing the network of section-line roads and named routes that serve local ranching and agricultural interests. Prominent thoroughfares include Coal Creek Rd, Michel Rd, and Hammerberg Rd, which navigate the high-elevation flats and coulee floors. Located just south of the international boundary with the United States of America, this study preserves the modern configuration of townships and ranges, including t37n r44e, in a landscape where water and topography dictate the movement of commerce and transit.
