2020 Map of Sollid School

About this map

Dead Indian Coulee and Pondera Coulee define the drainage patterns of this rural landscape, where four Montana counties—Toole, Pondera, Liberty, and Chouteau—converge. The area is marked by the legacy of early 20th-century education and community life, anchored by the Sollid School (historical) and the Golden West Cem located along Golden West Cemetery Rd. A sparse network of family-named roads like Boyum Rd, Torske Rd, and Iversen Rd connects the isolated ranching operations, such as Denson Ranch, to the wider region. The map highlights the intersection of public infrastructure and private land use, including the proximity of St Olaf Church to the northern boundary. The terrain is characterized by winding seasonal coulees and features like Shotgun Slough, illustrating the importance of water management in this northern plains environment.
