About this map

Glacier Colony sits on the western edge of this High Plains landscape, situated along the border of Glacier and Toole Counties. The region is defined by a series of significant drainage features and coulees, including Old Maids Coulee, Sand Coulee, and Snake Coulee, which carve through the prairie towards the southern reaches of the map. Several lakes dot the northern and central terrain, most notably Grassy Lake, Hay Lake, and Long Lake, providing essential water sources in this otherwise dry agricultural expanse.

A grid of rural roads, such as Tipville Rd and Peterson Rd, connects the scattered farmsteads and agricultural operations. To the south, Montana Power Camp Rd suggests utility-related infrastructure in the area. This 2014 survey documents a land still largely defined by communal Hutterite settlement and wide-open ranching country, where natural depressions like Healy Coulee and Mud Lake dictate the movement of both water and local transport.
