About this map

Valleytown and the small settlement of Genevieve sit on the high plains along the border of Phillips and Valley Counties. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of drainage channels, or coulees, that carve through the prairie towards significant water catchments. The Frenchman Reservoir dominates the western portion of the map, while Nelsons Reservoir sits to the northeast, illustrating the importance of water management in this arid northern Montana ranching country.

Transport across these townships relies on a grid of rural routes including Frenchman Rd and Genevieve Rd, which connect isolated homesteads and grazing lands. Named geological features like Three Chimney Coulee, Rattlesnake Coulee, and Bohner Coulee provide essential landmarks for navigating the local topography. This survey provides a modern view of the land use and drainage patterns that have sustained this region for generations.
