2014 Map of Flasted Hill

About this map

Flasted Hill and Coal Creek Hill dominate this southeastern Montana landscape, providing a clear view of the high ground between the drainage basins of the Little Missouri and Powder Rivers. This section of the Great Plains is defined by a dendritic network of intermittent watercourses, most notably N Fork Coal Bank Cr and Horse Cr, which have carved out the undulating terrain. The boundary between Fallon and Carter Counties bisects the quadrangle, reflecting the sparse ranching and agricultural patterns of the early twenty-first century. A few primitive roads, such as Webster Rd and Chimney Creek Rd, provide the only access through these expansive sections of rangeland, tracing the natural contours of the hills and creek beds.
