2024 Map of Whately

About this map

The Milk River meanders across this landscape of Valley County, defining the valley floor south of the regional hub at Glasgow. This contemporary survey illustrates the irrigation infrastructure critical to the area's agricultural history, specifically the Vandalia South Canal which traverses the southern portion of the quadrangle. North of the river, the terrain rises toward the high plains, punctuated by drainage features like Goudge Coulee and Whately Coulee. At the edge of the breaks, the small settlement of Whately sits near the rail line and river bend, while the northwestern corner is dominated by the runways of Wokal Field/Glasgow International Airport. High points such as Tiger Butte provide a vertical contrast to the riparian zones of Willow Creek and Dodge Creek, reflecting the mixed ranching and transit character of this northern Montana region.
