2020 Map of Fourteenmile Coulee SW

About this map

The High Line plains along the northern Montana border define this landscape where Hill Co and Chouteau Co meet. The geography is characterized by the subtle relief of the northern prairie, most notably where Sixmile Coulee cuts through the southeastern section of the map. A rigid grid of section-line roads provides the primary infrastructure for this agricultural region, reflecting the systematic land division of the Public Land Survey System that shaped the American West. Key transit routes including Hingham Rd, Edwards Rd, and Spring Coulee Rd navigate the open spaces, while Black Coulee Rd W and its eastern counterparts like E Black Coulee Rd traverse the southern portion of the quadrangle. This area remains a sparsely populated expanse of Montana's central plains, where watercourses like the coulees provide the most significant breaks in the vast, open terrain.
