2014 Map of Reservoir Coulee

About this map

Reservoir Coulee and Badger Coulee define the drainage patterns of this rural landscape in Blaine County. This high-plains terrain is marked by the seasonal flow of Reser Cr and the more prominent Lodge Creek, which cuts through the northeastern corner. The map illustrates a strictly organized grid of sections and townships, typical of the American West's public land survey system. Local movement is facilitated by a network of gravel and dirt routes, including Lonesome Rd and Reser Rd. The presence of Cemetery Rd suggests a proximity to localized family or community landmarks that often remain as the primary evidence of rural settlement patterns. Further south, Redrock Coulee joins the network of deep draws that characterize the area's topography.
