2011 Map of Poverty Coulee NE

About this map

Dobie Ridge rises as a prominent topographical landmark in this rural landscape of North Central Montana. The area is defined by its drainages, notably the winding paths of Black Coulee and Larson Coulee, which shape the local hydrology and elevation contours. This terrain is segmented by a sparse but organized network of roads, including South Joplin Rd, Black Coulee Rd, and Crow Rd, which follow the rigid geometry of the established section lines. This map illustrates the intersection of natural erosion patterns with the large-scale agricultural grid characteristic of the Great Plains, where roads and property boundaries are often dictated by the cardinal directions and topography of the coulees.
