2024 Map of Flat Creek School

About this map

Flat Creek meanders through the central and southern portions of this Garfield County landscape, carving out a drainage network defined by deep coulees and intermittent stream beds. The terrain is structured by massive geographic depressions, most notably Green Coulee in the center and Thompson Coulee to the east, while Lone Tree Creek and Snap Creek mark the northern reaches. This rural area, surveyed recently by the U.S. Geological Survey, reflects a sparsely populated ranching or agricultural environment where infrastructure is limited to primitive and secondary routes such as Van Norman Rd and Old Flat Creek Rd. The Public Land Survey System grid clearly delineates the vast tracts of land, illustrating the geometric precision of western land management in modern Montana.
