About this map

Teton Ridge dominates the southern landscape of this 1980s Montana survey, where the rugged topography drops away into the winding course of Timber Coulee. The area is defined by its sparse infrastructure and energy-related footprints, marked by a series of pipelines and a Trans Line cutting across the terrain. Along the county line shared by Teton Co and Chouteau Co, the landscape shows evidence of utility development and resource extraction.

Local activity is centered around a remote Landing Strip and industrial markers like the Pumping Station and Sub Station. Geologic utility is evident in the presence of a Gravel Pit and an Inactive Gravel Pit. A unique engineering feature is found at the Rd on Causeway, illustrating the practical solutions required to navigate the low-lying sections of the coulee country during this era of rural development.
