2024 Map of Flowing Well

About this map

The boundary between McCone Co and Garfield Co bisects this stretch of the eastern Montana plains. The landscape is defined by an intricate drainage system that feeds toward the Missouri River basin, featuring prominent watercourses such as Crooked Creek and Timber Creek. These streams have carved a complex network of coulees and draws into the high prairie, with Patterson Coulee and Skull Creek serving as significant topographic landmarks. Development in the region is sparse, consisting primarily of section-line roads and ranch access routes like S Flowing Wells Rd and Skull Creek Rd. The map illustrates the traditional township and range system, providing a precise look at the land partitions and natural watersheds including Coal Creek and Soda Creek that have shaped grazing and ranching patterns across these counties.
