2024 Map of Lost River

About this map

The Milk River meanders through the northern portion of this Hill County landscape, where it is joined by the Lost River near the international boundary with the United States of America. This northern Montana terrain is defined by its drainage patterns and the deep incision of the Sahara Coulee further south. The map reflects a rural, open landscape structured by the Public Land Survey System, with township and range lines such as t37n r10e and t36n r9e providing the primary spatial framework. Modern section-line roads, including Rd 135 N and Rd 240 N, offer access across the vast tracts of land between these significant watercourses. The convergence of these two rivers and the surrounding coulees illustrates a remote northern environment where hydrology and property boundaries dictate the human imprint on the land.
