2020 Map of Jakes Coulee

About this map

W Fork Poplar River carves a central path through this section of the High Plains, serving as the primary hydrological feature of the landscape. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage channels and coulees, most notably Jakes Coulee in the southeast and Cottonwood Creek to the west. This 2020 survey illustrates a sparsely developed region where human activity is primarily marked by the presence of Lannon Rd and the straight-line boundaries separating Daniels and Roosevelt counties. In the northern reaches, Police Creek flows through the rolling elevation, reflecting the characteristic geography of the Wolf Point District. The map provides a precise look at the land partitions and natural drainage patterns that have shaped land use in this part of northeastern Montana.
