2020 Map of Ziegele Coulee

About this map

Ziegele Coulee and its neighboring drainage systems define this section of Garfield County, Montana. This high-plains landscape is intricately carved by intermittent watercourses like Southerland Coulee in the north and Harston Coulee to the southwest. The terrain patterns on this sheet reveal the erosive force of the seasonal hydrology that feeds into larger arteries such as Sand Cr and the winding Long Br. These features reflect the complex topography of a region dominated by coulees—deep, often dry ravines or gulches—that serve as the primary landmarks for navigation and land division. The map provides a detailed view of the sectional grid lines that overlay this geography, showing how local landmarks like McClay Coulee and Willis Coulee intersect with the boundaries of Township 16 and 17 North.
