2014 Map of Wagon Coulee

About this map

The Missouri River snakes across this landscape on the border of Valley and Garfield Counties, where the vast waters of Fort Peck Lake meet a complex network of dry drainage channels. The area is defined by its dramatic relief, where features like Wagon Coulee and Irishman Coulee carve deep paths through the high plains toward the river bottom. To the southeast, Round Butte serves as a prominent navigational landmark rising above the surrounding breaks.
