2020 Map of Sims Spring

About this map

Sims Spring and the nearby 30N48E22DDCA01 Spring anchor this portion of the Wolf Point District, illustrating the critical importance of water sources in the high plains of Roosevelt County. The drainage network is clearly defined by the branching paths of Boxelder Cr in the northeast and Chelsea Cr in the south, while Smith Coulee cuts through the northwest corner. This landscape is a patchwork of public and private interests, organized by the Public Land Survey System across Townships 29 and 30 North. A sparse but functional road network, including Powder River Rd and various rural routes like Rd 2046 and Rd 2049, facilitates transit across the undulating terrain. The cartography provides a clear view of the topographical contours that dictate the flow of seasonal water and the placement of local infrastructure in this rural Montana setting.
