About this map

Veseth Reservoir dominates the drainage patterns of this Phillips County landscape, anchoring a network of intermittent streams and coulees that define the local topography. This region of Montana is characterized by a sparse settlement pattern, with Midale serving as a focal point along Midale Rd. The intricate system of waterways includes the meandering path of Beaver Creek in the south and the northern reach of Little Warm Creek.

Erosional features are prominent throughout the quadrangle, evidenced by the numerous named coulees such as Olson Coulee, Hemming Coulee, and Parrott Coulee. These landforms, along with the descriptively named Bad Land Creek, illustrate the complex hydrological history of the area. The map provides a clear view of the Public Land Survey System township and range lines, including t26n r27e and t25n r28e, which historically partitioned these grazing lands and agricultural tracts.
