2020 Map of Lake Thibadeau

About this map

Lake Thibadeau dominates the southern landscape of this Hill County survey, situated just north of the East End Colony. This region of Montana, defined by its agricultural layout and water management, features a significant water Diversion system designed to harness the flow of Lodge Creek as it winds through the eastern townships. The map illustrates a meticulously organized grid of section lines and local thoroughfares, including Shepherd Rd and Rd 170 N, which provide access to the vast tracts of farmland and private rangeland. The boundary between Hill and Blaine counties is clearly marked along the eastern edge, showing how these political divisions intersect with the natural drainage patterns of the high plains. Researchers will find a clear record of modern land use, from the named private crop roads to the distinct settlement pattern of the Hutterite colony.
