About this map

Coughlin sits at the intersection of MT-141 and McDonald Rd, serving as a central point in this Powell County landscape. The area is defined by its complex water management and natural drainage, with the N Helmville Canal winding across the southern half while the Blackfoot River cuts through the northeast. To the north, the terrain transitions from the open expanse of Kleinschmidt Flat toward the high points of Marcum Mtn and Mineral Hill.

Significant portions of the eastern terrain are protected within the Helena National Forest, where steep elevations like Trapper Mtn overlook numerous drainages including Wasson Cr and Spring Creek. The map shows a network of rural routes such as Arrastra Creek Rd and Quartz Mill Gulch Rd, reflecting a landscape tied to ranching and timber. Local landmarks like Deadmans Lake and the various forks of Nevada Creek provide specific points of reference for researchers of Montana's mountain valleys.
