2017 Map of Flick Lake

About this map

Portage sits at the eastern edge of this High Plains landscape, where the border between Chouteau and Cascade Counties cuts through a region defined by seasonal water and deep drainages. The topography is shaped by prominent erosional features like Huntley Coulee and Portage Coulee, which carve through the plains toward the Missouri River valley just beyond the map's boundary. Ranching and land management are evident in the naming of local water sources and infrastructure, including Twentyweight Mile Spring and the Dick Golie Fish Pond. A grid of section lines and gravel routes, such as Whitehorn Ln and Dent Bridge Rd, provides access to the interior. The presence of Flick Lake in the northwest corner highlights the scattered wetlands that characterize this part of Montana's central plateau.
