About this map

The town of Poplar serves as the focal point of this Roosevelt County survey, situated at the confluence of the Poplar River and the sweeping curves of the Missouri River. The township's civic and infrastructure layout is clearly defined, featuring the Poplar Post Office, Poplar Vol Fire Dept, and the Poplar Airport north of the main settlement. Local navigation is anchored by the West Poplar River Bridge and the Old Ferry Rd, reflecting the historical importance of river crossings in this part of Montana.

The surrounding landscape is characterized by its drainage network, including the Redwater River, Boxelder Creek, and First Creek. To the south, the terrain becomes more varied with named features like Hubbard Coulee and Glendive Coulee, while water management is evidenced by Voorhees Dam. For genealogists and local historians, the Poplar Cemetery is an essential landmark on the northeastern edge of town, near the distinctive river meander known as Boys Bend.
