2014 Map of Wheeler

About this map

The settlement of Wheeler anchors the southeastern corner of this Valley County landscape, situated where MT-24 cuts through the high plains. The geography is defined by a dense network of coulees, including Wheeler Coulee, Borton Coulee, and the winding Galpin Coulee, which trace the drainage patterns of the Missouri River breaks. This 2014 survey reveals an agricultural and ranching environment connected by a grid of named local routes such as Willow Creek Rd and Tiger Butte Rd. To the north, the Vandalia S Canal represents significant irrigation infrastructure, while the prominent height of Tiger Butte serves as a local landmark. The map documents the persistent rural character of the region, illustrating the relationship between the rugged terrain of Fullerton Coulee and the established watercourses like Dogie Cr and Mud Cr.
