About this map

Kuester Lake and the undulating terrain of eastern Montana define this landscape, where the borders of Richland and Dawson counties intersect. This 2017 study reveals a sparsely settled region primarily shaped by intermittent water systems like E Redwater Cr and the S Fork Lisk Cr. The presence of Wold Reservoir in the southwestern corner highlights the importance of water management in this high plains environment.

Transportation is facilitated by a network of rural routes, including Co Rd 126 and Co 315, which weave between the section lines of the Public Land Survey System. For researchers or genealogists interested in the geography of the Missouri Plateau, the map provides a precise look at the township and range divisions, such as t22n r53e and t23n r53e, illustrating the enduring grid-based organization of this agricultural and ranching country.
