2011 Map of Hinsdale

About this map

Hinsdale serves as the central hub of this Valley County landscape, where the winding course of the Milk River meets the drainages of Beaver Creek and Rock Creek. The geography is defined by a series of coulees, including Limekiln Coulee and Tank Coulee, which cut through the northern plains to meet the fertile river valley. This 2011 survey highlights the enduring cattle and ranching heritage of the region, identifying established properties such as Roub's Ranch, Whitmore's Ranch, and Wooldridge's Ranch scattered across the northern reaches and eastern irrigation canals. Infrastructure near the town center includes the Hinsdale Airport, the Hinsdale Post Office, and Hillview Cemetery, providing a detailed look at the civic layout of this rural community. The complex hydrology of the area is further evidenced by Baalke Slough and the Rock Creek Canal, indicating the intensive water management required for agriculture in this part of Montana.
