2017 Map of Van Dusen Spring

About this map

Van Dusen Spring serves as a vital water source in this high plains landscape of Garfield County, where the terrain is deeply etched by a network of drainage features. The map details a rugged topography defined by named erosional landmarks including Smiley Coulee, Wickstrom Coulee, and the lengthy Klein Coulee. These features illustrate the drainage patterns toward Sand Cr, which meanders through the western and southern sections of the survey area. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by the utility of Guesanborn Reservoir and the lone transit of Guesanborn Rd. The land is organized by the Public Land Survey System, spanning townships such as t15n r36e, which highlights the remote, structured nature of this Montana ranching or grazing territory.
