2014 Map of Ingals Dam

About this map

Cat Creek Cem sits on a high point above the drainage of Cat Cr, marking a quiet historical site in this portion of Petroleum County. The landscape is defined by its dramatic coulees and intermittent watercourses, such as the deeply carved Jackson Coulee to the northeast and Bull Springs Coulee which dominates the central and southern reaches. The namesake Ingals Dam reflects the area's ongoing management of water resources within a landscape of rolling ranges. Local transit is facilitated by a network of rural routes including Jitney Rd and Petrolia Lake Rd, which connect the isolated ranchlands to MT-200. The map illustrates the convergence of several drainages, including Brush Cr and Box Elder Cr, as they traverse the distinct township and range sections of this Montana prairie.
