About this map

Horse Pasture Coulee and its neighboring drainages define this stretch of Phillips County, Montana, revealing a landscape etched by seasonal watercourses. The map details a complex network of coulees, including Miller Coulee, Smith Coulee, and Seven Mile Coulee, which serve as the primary topographic markers in this expansive area. Human imprint is sparse, concentrated primarily along Content Rd, which provides the main transit corridor through the northern and eastern sections.

Water management is evident at the Black Cow Reservoir, a key feature for local ranching or conservation in an otherwise arid environment. The drainages of Beaver Cr, Little Sevenmile Cr, and the cryptically named No Name Coulee further illustrate the intricate hydrography that shapes the local terrain, offering a specialized look at the land's natural drainage patterns and the few improved routes that navigate them.
