2020 Map of Flowing Well

About this map

Flowing Well serves as a central landmark in this high plains landscape straddling the line between McCone and Garfield counties. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage systems, including Timber Cr, Coal Cr, and Soda Cr, which have carved out significant topographic features such as Patterson Coulee and Steves Coulee. This 2020 survey illustrates a sparsely populated ranching or grazing environment where the primary human infrastructure consists of rural corridors like S Flowing Wells Rd and Skull Creek Rd. The map provides a contemporary view of these eastern Montana badlands, showing how water and wind continue to shape the coulees and creek beds while the historic county boundary remains a primary geographic divider in this quiet stretch of the frontier.
