2014 Map of Simpson
USGS Topo · Published 2014About this map
Simpson serves as a central point in this high-plains landscape just south of the international border. The terrain is defined by dry lake beds and intermittent water sources, such as the northern Grassy Lake and the eastern Wild Horse Lake, which are situated among high-altitude plateaus. The Milk River enters the frame in the southwest corner, providing a vital riparian corridor in an otherwise arid environment. Along the route of MT-232, the Spring Coulee Cem and the nearby Spring Coulee Ridge offer specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracking the early homesteading patterns in Hill County. The grid-like arrangement of roads, including Road 290 N and Road 220 N, illustrates the enduring structure of the Public Land Survey System in this part of Montana.
