2011 Map of Tyler

About this map

The small settlement of Tyler sits along the western edge of this central Montana landscape, where the prairie is defined by a dense network of coulees and drainage systems. This 2011 survey shows a rural environment centered on the Tyler Cemetery and the meandering path of Flatwillow Creek. The hydrology of the area is particularly detailed, tracing the courses of Elk Creek, Spring Creek, and Durfee Creek as they carve through the terrain. A unique point of interest is the Muppet Dam, located south of Upper Flatwillow Rd. The map illustrates a sparse but persistent network of local roads that connect these isolated water sources and homestead sites, reflecting the enduring ranching and agricultural character of Fergus County in the early 21st century.
