About this map

Wolf Point serves as the primary hub of this landscape, situated at a bend in the Missouri River where the BNSF Railway parallels the river's northern bank. The town's grid is meticulously detailed, extending from Front St near the tracks to residential avenues named for early local families and regional history. Several legacy sites offer significant genealogical value, including Greenwood Cem and Kings Cem near the town center, while the more remote Chicken Hill Cem is located to the southwest.

The surrounding terrain is defined by complex drainage patterns, where Wolf Creek and Littleman Cr meet the Missouri. The landscape shifts into more dramatic relief south of the river, marked by the deep incisions of Martin Coulee and Bad Land Coulee. This area is further shaped by the jurisdictional boundaries of McCone and Roosevelt Counties, with the river acting as a natural divide between the plateau lands and the riparian valley floor.
