2024 Map of Havre

About this map

The Milk River valley anchors this study of northern Montana, where the BNSF Railway corridor continues to drive the orientation of Havre. The town serves as a regional hub, centered around the Hill County Courthouse and the campus of Montana State University Northern. To the west and north, residential expansions like West Havre and Havre North define the suburban fringe, while the landscape beyond is marked by water management and conservation efforts. The Hill County Waterfowl Production Area and the Havre Irrigation Ditch highlight the intersection of agricultural needs and wildlife preservation. Significant local landmarks include Mount Hope Cem and Highland Cem, providing touchpoints for local genealogy. The terrain transitions from the river bottom to higher ground marked by Saddle Butte and Indian Woman Butte, with drainage systems like Bullhook Creek and Harroun Coulee carving the surrounding plains.
