2014 Map of Glengarry

About this map

Glengarry and Hanover anchor this central Montana landscape, where the high plains break into a network of coulees and creek beds. The drainage patterns of Beaver Cr and Cottonwood Cr dictate the placement of early road networks, including Hanover Rd and the Cottonwood Creek Rd. Topographic landmarks such as Indian Rock and The Point rise above the drainage of Beaver Cr, while the aptly named The Gap provides a natural corridor through the undulating terrain. Local infrastructure is noted by the Beaver Creek Bridge and various rural ranch roads that connect the dispersed settlements. The presence of King Coulee and Crow Coulee illustrates the erosional character of the region, defining the ranching and agricultural boundaries that have persisted into the twenty-first century.
