About this map

Tiber Dam and the sprawling waters of Lake Elwell dominate this Liberty County landscape, where the Marias River has been harnessed for irrigation and recreation. The infrastructure of the mid-century water project is evident in the presence of Tiber Dam Camp and the nearby Tiber Dam Airport, which serve the dam site. The surrounding terrain is defined by deep drainage systems, including Sixmile Coulee and Crooked Coulee, which cut through the high plains toward the river valley.

Downstream, the river meanders through a network of rural crossings and secondary water features like the Pugsley Reservoir and Pugsley Bridge. This survey illustrates the contrast between the engineered environment of the reservoir and the natural erosional features of Pondera Coulee and Spring Coulee. The map provides a detailed view of the local road network, including Mountain Highway 366 and Pugsley Rd, which link the remote camp to the wider region.
