About this map

The Milk River meanders across this northern Montana landscape, defining a wide alluvial valley flanked by a complex system of drainage coulees. Water management infrastructure is prominent in the region, evidenced by the Dodson South Canal and several significant crossings like the Assiniboine Creek Bridge and the Circle Diamond Coulee Bridge. These structures provide critical links across the often-dry tributaries that feed into the main river channel during seasonal runoff.

Rural land divisions are clearly marked through township and range boundaries such as t31n r30e, while local access is maintained via roads like Jones Rd and Kjos Rd. The terrain is characterized by named geographical features that hint at the ranching history of the area, including Horse Camp Coulee and Spring Coulee. This map documents the hydrologic and transport patterns of the prairie just before the end of the second decade of the 2000s.
