2017 Map of Thoeny Hills East OE N

About this map

Frenchman River meanders across this northern landscape just south of the international boundary with Canada. The terrain is defined by the drainage patterns of Otter Cr and Little Breed Cr, which cut through the open country of Phillips County. This 2017 survey shows a land shaped primarily by its hydrology, where the river's path creates the primary geographical orientation in an area otherwise sparse of structural development. The relationship between the northern border and these natural watercourses highlights the importance of watershed management in the high plains region, where these seasonal or permanent streams are the dominant landmarks.
