2014 Map of Lindeke Coulee

About this map

The Milk River meanders across the southern portion of this landscape, its wide valley floor and intricate oxbows contrasting with the dissected uplands to the north. These northern reaches are defined by a series of significant drainages, including the namesake Lindeke Coulee, Espeil Coulee, and Hay Coulee, which carve through the plains. The transport network reflects both historical and modern passage through Valley County, centered on the prominent corridor of Us-2 and the Roosevelt Trl. Local movement is facilitated by a grid of rural routes such as Fox Farm Rd and Old Smokey Rd, while Memorial Gardens stands as a quiet landmark near the highway. The map illustrates a ranching and agricultural landscape shaped by the persistent flow of water and the necessity of reliable roads across the Montana prairie.
