About this map

The Missouri River carves a winding path through the borderlands of Roosevelt and Richland counties, shaping a landscape defined by significant riverine features. This modern topographic record highlights several large islands within the channel, including Skinners Island, White Shield Island, and Ivys Island, which illustrate the river's shifting nature in this part of Montana. The settlement of Sprole serves as a central point along the northern rail and road corridor, situated near the head of several significant drainage systems.

To the south of the river, the terrain rises into a network of coulees and creeks that feed into the Missouri. Schoolhouse Coulee and Colgan Creek are prominent features in the western portion, while a series of numbered and named tributaries like First Creek, Second Creek, Bilger Creek, and Deep Creek provide a detailed look at the local hydrology and land divisions within t26n r51e and t27n r51e.
