2014 Map of Yegen

About this map

Billings expands southward toward the Yellowstone River in this modern topographical study, revealing the complex intersection of urban development and Montana’s natural drainage patterns. The northern section is dominated by suburban growth and commercial corridors, including Zoo Dr and Overland Ave, while the Holy Cross Cem sits near the river's northern bank. South of the river, the landscape shifts abruptly into the high, contoured terrain of Brockway Coulee and Secret Valley, where the land is carved by numerous watercourses like E Fork Duck Cr and Little Basin Cr. This transition from the structured street grids of Yegen to the open, dissected uplands highlights the geographic constraints and irrigation history of the region, notably seen through the winding path of the Suburban Ditch.
