2017 Map of Fort Piegan

About this map

Fort Piegan serves as the focal point for this section of Glacier County, situated within a vast landscape defined by glacial erosional features. The terrain is marked by significant topographical markers like Antelope Butte in the north and the deep incisions of Cobell Coulee and Powell Coulee which drain toward the south. The hydrological network is dominated by the winding course of Cut Bank Creek, which is joined by Willow Cr in the southwestern quadrant. These waterways reflect the characteristic drainage patterns of the Montana plains, where narrow coulees provide the primary relief in an otherwise expansive high-prairie environment. Transport across this sparsely populated region is facilitated by routes like Art Perrine Rd, providing access to the remote township and range sections that organize the local land use and ranching history.
