2011 Map of Gallatin Rapids

About this map

The Missouri River cuts a wide path through this stretch of Fergus County, defining a landscape shaped by river navigation and highland ridges. In the northern reaches, the Gallatin Rapids and Dauphin Rapids mark historically challenging segments of the waterway, while Stafford Ferry Rd suggests the long-standing importance of river crossings in this area. South of the river, the terrain rises into distinct landforms including Whiskey Ridge, Sugarloaf Rock, and Leslie Point. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the winding path of Dog Creek, which meanders through the valley below Jones Cone and Oil Well Hill. This area is characterized by a sparse network of rural roads like Cleveland Rd and Heggem Ln, connecting isolated geographic points and seasonal drainages such as Flax Coulee.
