2014 Map of Sage Creek Point

About this map

Fort Peck Lake dominates this northern Montana landscape, where the waters of the Missouri River reservoir meet a complex system of breaks and coulees. The boundary between Valley and Garfield counties winds through the center of the sheet, tracing the rugged topography from Fourth Ridge in the north down to the shoreline near Sage Creek Point. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly intricate with numerous named drainage features such as South Embleton Coulee and Kay Coulee. Notable elevations and promontories like Grave Point, Bell Point, and Chilkoot Pass provide orientation for those navigating the backcountry. This 2014 survey documents the modern extent of the reservoir and its surrounding public lands, showing sparse human infrastructure apart from isolated routes like The Pines Rd that offer access to the high ridges and water's edge.
