About this map

Hay Creek meanders through this portion of Roosevelt County, carving a drainage pattern defined by several prominent erosional features. The terrain is notably marked by Swank Coulee in the southwest and Kirns Coulee toward the southeast, illustrating the complex hydrology of the High Plains. While the landscape is largely open, the presence of the 31N51E10BDCC01 Spring indicates localized water sources critical for the region's land use.

Section lines and a network of rural routes, including Ry Rd and Rd 2041, provide the primary structure for movement across the township boundaries of T31N and T32N. The map reflects a modern survey of the area's physical geography, documenting the precise relationship between the creek beds and the established public land survey system grid that has dictated Montana's land divisions for over a century.
