The high plains of Chouteau County are defined by a network of drainage features and straight-line section roads that reflect the systematic layout of the Public Land Survey System. Major geographical markers include Twelvemile Coulee in the north and the deep channel of Dry Fork Coulee to the west, with Sixmile Coulee cutting through the southeastern corner. This landscape is partitioned by a grid of named local thoroughfares, such as Rudyard Rd and Houston Rd, which provide access to the dryland farming operations characteristic of this region. The route known as Broadway cuts diagonally across the section lines, suggesting a historic transportation path that deviates from the rigid township and range grid of t27n r10e and t26n r10e.
