1969 Map of Fourteenmile Coulee NE

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Faulkners Coulee and Fourteenmile Coulee carve through the high plains of Hill County in this late 1960s study of North-Central Montana. The landscape is characterized by its intermittent drainage systems and sparse settlement, typical of the Missouri River Basin development program era. Small signs of human activity are present at Van in the northeast and a lone Cem in the central-east, marking the quiet centers of local rural life. The presence of a designated Well and the winding course of Halfway Coulee illustrate the critical importance of water management in this arid stretch of the Great Plains. The map's contour lines reveal the intricate relief of the coulee systems as they descend through the terrain, providing a look at the topographical reality of Montana ranching country during this period.
