2020 Map of Rocky Point

About this map

Rocky Point overlooks a complex hydrological landscape where the meandering channel of Big Muddy Creek meets the northern reaches of Manning Lake. This Roosevelt County survey highlights the intricate wetland systems of the Fort Kipp District, dominated by the winding paths of Smoke Creek and the seasonal drainages of Irish Coulee. The terrain is defined by low-lying basins and alluvial flats, crisscrossed by a sparse network of section-line roads and rural routes including Hwy 344 N and Slab Rd. The pattern of these waterways and the associated wetlands suggests a landscape deeply influenced by the seasonal fluctuations of the Missouri River watershed, maintaining the open, undeveloped character of this Montana borderland region.
