2020 Map of North Chinook Reservoir NW

About this map

Hartland Colony sits at the center of this high-plains landscape, where the agricultural community is defined by a network of drainage channels and coulees. The terrain is marked by the winding course of Battle Cr, which flows through the northern and central sections, carving out landforms like Corregan Coulee and Twin Coulee. This 2020 record of north-central Montana shows a sparsely populated area where life is organized around the section lines of the Public Land Survey System and local thoroughfares such as Woodpile Rd and Ellome Rd. The map illustrates the persistence of the Hutterite settlement pattern in the region, with the colony's infrastructure concentrated south of Woodpile Coulee. To the south, Hay Coulee further defines the geography of the Hill and Blaine county line, reflecting a landscape where water and topography dictate the movement of people and livestock.
