1983 Map of Fortyfour Coulee

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Fortyfour Coulee and its neighboring drainages define this portion of McCone County, Montana, during the early 1980s. The landscape is a network of deeply etched coulees and intermittent watercourses, reflecting a typical High Plains erosion pattern. Names like Timber Coulee, Shed Coulee, and Meadows Coulee suggest a history of localized land use, perhaps tied to early ranching and livestock shelter. Higher elevations such as Cobb Hill provide vantage points over the surrounding breaks. Water management is sparse but evident through the presence of the Leaky Reservoir in the northern reaches, while larger drainage systems like Ten Deer Creek and its tributary East Ten Deer Creek dominate the southern half of the quadrangle. This map serves as a record of the intricate topographical detail of the Big Dry country before more modern infrastructure changes.
