2020 Map of Nolan Reservoir

About this map

Nolan Reservoir sits at the center of this Blaine County landscape, where the drainages of the N Fork Linn Coulee and Christenson Br carve through the high plains. This 2020 survey illustrates a region defined by sparse water sources and historic transit routes, most notably the path of the Cow Island Trl crossing the southern and central sections of the quadrangle. The naming conventions, such as Coal Mine Coulee in the northeast, reflect the local geography's historical utility. This terrain is marked by essential water points like Bear Paw Springs, which served as vital landmarks for early travelers and ranching operations. Modern access is maintained via Golden Valley Rd and Lloyd Rd, connecting these isolated water features to the broader county road network.
