2020 Map of Timber Coulee North

About this map

The Teton River carves a winding path through this northern Montana landscape, where the high plains are deeply incised by a network of drainage features. This 2020 survey captures the convergence of Teton, Pondera, and Chouteau counties, a rural expanse defined more by its landforms than by modern development. The names etched across the terrain—such as Kinnerely Coulee, Kinley Coulee, and Spencer Coulee—speak to the importance of natural hydrology in an area dominated by large-scale agriculture and open range. A sparse but deliberate grid of roads, including Faris School Rd and 26th Rd NE, follows the township and range lines, providing access to the remote sections of T26N and T25N. The namesake Timber Coulee in the southeast corner further illustrates the character of this territory, where small breaks in the plateau offer shelter and varied topography amidst the sweeping northern plains.
