2011 Map of Spring Coulee

About this map

Arrow Creek and Coffee Creek carve a series of deep drainage channels across this Montana landscape, where the naming of topographic depressions—or coulees—reveals a history of local family settlement and land use. From Wilson Coulee in the northwest to Big Coulee in the south, these features define the arid terrain between large agricultural operations. The map documents the enduring presence of the Evers Ranch and the P N Ranch, which represent the large-scale ranching tradition of Fergus County. Along Everson Rd, a small cluster of social and civic life is preserved through the Everson Community Hall and the Everson Cemetery, marking a quiet center for a dispersed rural community.
