About this map

The Yellowstone River dominates this eastern Montana landscape, carving a wide, braided path through Richland County. The river’s course is marked by numerous named landforms including Crittenden Island, Elk Island, and Breakneck Island, illustrating the dynamic nature of the waterway. The settlement of Savage serves as the primary hub, clustered west of the river near Main St and Mesa Ave. Local infrastructure is well-defined, featuring the Savage Post Office, the Savage Vol Fire Company, and the Riverview Cemetery located just south of the town center.

Away from the riverbanks, the terrain is shaped by several coulees and creeks that feed into the valley, such as Peabody Coulee, Garden Coulee, and Dunlap Creek. In the southern reaches of the map, Devils Canyon and Beef Slough provide distinct topographical markers. This map is particularly useful for those tracing the development of the river-adjacent community or researching family ties near the local landmarks and rural roads like County Rd 342.
