2017 Map of Wolfe Coulee

About this map

Fort Peck Lake dominates this Montana landscape, where the Missouri River corridor marks the boundary between Valley and Garfield counties. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of drainages and seasonal watercourses, locally known as coulees, which carve deep patterns into the surrounding high ground. Features such as Wyatt Coulee, Hell Hole Coulee, and Wolfe Coulee reveal the topographic complexity of the northern plains. South of the main lake body, Billy Coulee and Billy Cr drain toward the shoreline. Transport through this often-isolated area is limited to primitive routes like the Natl Forest Develop Road 213 Rd and the Timber Creek Trl, which navigate the high ridges and steep breaks overlooking the reservoir.
