2017 Map of Teigen

About this map

The small settlement of Teigen serves as a focal point in this Central Montana landscape, situated near the boundary where Fergus County and Petroleum County meet. The geography is defined by a series of intermittent watercourses including Buffalo Creek, Dry Creek, and the winding McDonald Creek which traverses the southern portion of the quadrangle. To the north, the presence of War Horse Lake and the Winnett Irrigation County Ditch indicates the essential role of water management in this arid ranching and farming region. The local transportation network consists of rural corridors like Blakeslee Road and the Double S Cutoff, which connect the scattered holdings across the high plains. This 2017 survey illustrates the persistent rural character of the area, where land use is dictated by the drainage patterns of the Missouri River watershed.
