About this map

Goldstone sits atop the high plains of Hill County, Montana, just south of the international boundary between Canada and the United States of America. This landscape is defined by the deep incisions of the Milk River as it winds through the northernmost reaches of the territory, flanked by the dramatic topography of Kennedy Coulee. The agricultural grid is punctuated by local landmarks like the Saint Wenceslaus Cem, a site of particular interest for genealogists tracing the heritage of this borderland community.

Transportation through the region relies on a network of straight-line section roads, including Rudyard Rd and Hwy 255, which navigate around the natural depressions of Flat Coulee. The map illustrates the sparse settlement pattern of the modern era, where large-scale ranching and farming operations are centered around small outposts like Goldstone, maintaining a quiet existence along the northern frontier of the Treasure State.
