About this map

Four Horns Lake dominates this northern Montana landscape, situated at the boundary of Glacier Co and Pondera Co. This hydrologic network is defined by the Four Horns Outlet Canal and the winding course of Blacktail Cr, showing the critical role of water management in this high-plains environment. The terrain is deeply incised by numerous coulees, including Rocky Ridge Coulee and Jackson Coulee, which dictate the local travel routes.

Primitive transportation paths like the Four Horns Lake Trl and Rocky Ridge Trl traverse the undulating surface, while Birch Creek Rd and Big Rock Ln provide more established access further south. The map documents a sparsely settled region focused on water resources and natural landmarks like Tail Feather Coulee and Big Plum Coulee, reflecting the enduring character of the land under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Geological Survey.
