About this map

Beaver Creek winds through the heart of this Phillips County landscape, defining a network of drainage systems including Nelson Coulee and Camp Coulee. The terrain transitions from the stark Alkali Flat in the northwest to more dissected landforms further south and east. Water management is a primary feature of the area's development, evidenced by the presence of Nelson Reservoir and Puckett Reservoir, which supported the agricultural needs of this portion of the Montana plains during the late twentieth century.
