2014 Map of Ninemile Coulee East

About this map

The Milk River meanders through the arid plains of Hill County, cutting a prominent path through a landscape defined by its network of erosion-carved coulees. In this 2014 survey, the river's drainage basin serves as the primary topographical anchor, drawing in tributaries such as Roundup Coulee from the north and Spring Coulee from the east. The terrain is marked by a series of significant washes including Sevenmile Coulee, Ninemile Coulee, and Archie Coulee, which illustrate the natural drainage patterns that have shaped this portion of the Montana landscape. A rigid grid of rural corridors, including Road 170 N and Road 245 N, overlays the topography, reflecting the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System on modern navigation and land management in this section of the state.
