About this map

Midale and the surrounding rangelands of Phillips County are defined by a network of drainage coulees and vital water management sites. The landscape is marked by the winding path of Beaver Cr and significant landmarks like Dry Fork Ridge and Button Butte. Local history and genealogy researchers can locate the Midale Cem along Midale Rd, a central thoroughfare connecting the small settlement with nearby agricultural operations like the Emond Ranch.

Water security in this arid region is evidenced by numerous named catchments, including the central Holzhey Reservoir, Veseth Reservoir, and Dione Reservoir. This network, along with natural features like Shed Lake, illustrates the essential infrastructure required for ranching in the Big Sky country. The map also delineates the rugged topography of Lonesome Coulee, Scott Coulee, and Barber Coulee, providing a detailed look at the township and range system across t25n r28e and neighboring sectors.
