About this map

The boundary line between Golden Valley and Musselshell counties defines the eastern edge of this Central Montana landscape. The terrain is characterized by a series of distinct drainage patterns and coulees that cut through the high plains, including Spring Coulee and Twin Coulee. These features represent the typical rangeland topography of the region, where seasonal water flow has carved deep relief into the soil. Transport and access are provided by a network of rural routes such as Emory Rd and Middle Rd, which follow the section lines of the Public Land Survey System. The presence of Currant Creek and Cameron Creek suggests the vital importance of water sources in this arid environment, likely serving local ranching operations and native wildlife near the Timber Buttes Rd corridor.
