2024 Map of Macon

About this map

The Missouri River carves a deep, winding path through this northern Montana landscape, marking the boundary between Roosevelt and McCone counties. Along its northern banks, the settlement of Macon sits near the junction of several rural routes including RD 1068 and RD 2061. The area's aviation history is represented by the L M Clayton Airport and Vine Airport, reflecting the necessity of air travel in these wide-open plains. Local genealogy is anchored by the Courchene Cemetery, located south of the drainage from Little Wolf Creek. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage systems like Brown Coulee, U P Creek, and Nickwall Creek, which cut through the higher ground to meet the main river channel. This survey demonstrates the persistence of traditional land divisions, with section lines and grazing lands remaining the primary organizational features of the region.
