1970 Map of Poverty Coulee NE

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The boundary between Liberty County and Hill County bisects this high plains landscape, defined by a complex network of drainage channels and prominent elevations. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the striking geological form of Dobie Ridge, which creates a significant natural divide across the terrain. This 1970 survey, part of the Missouri River Basin development program, shows a largely open ranching landscape where seasonal water sources like Black Coulee and Larson Coulee dictate the movement of roads and fence lines. A high point named Bison in the northwest corner and a lonely Spring in the central east provide essential landmarks in this sparsely settled region. The map captures a moment in Montana's agricultural history when small-scale land divisions and Section-line roads formed the primary human footprint on the land.
