Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to determine landform origins in the Cottonwood Creek-Sage Creek drainage divide area located in Liberty and Hill Counties, Montana. Cottonwood Creek is a south oriented Marias River tributary with the Marias River flowing to the Missouri River, which flows across north central Montana on a route south of the […]
Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to determine landform origins for the Marias River-Big Sandy Creek drainage divide area in northern Chouteau County, Montana. The study region is bounded on the west by the east and south oriented Marias River, the south by the northeast-oriented Missouri River, the east by the north-northeast oriented Missouri River-Big […]
Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to determine landform origins in the Milk River-Marias River drainage divide area located in the Sweet Grass Hills of northern Toole and Liberty Counties, Montana. The Sweet Grass Hills are located just south of the Canadian border in north central Montana and consist of East Butte, Middle Butte, […]
Abstract: Topographic interpretation methods are used to determine landform origins in the Milk River-Marias River drainage divide area located in Toole County, Montana. Toole County is located in north central Montana and is directly south of the Canadian (Alberta) border. The Milk River originates in Montana on the east edge of Glacier National Park and […]
Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to determine landform origins for the Milk River-Cut Bank Creek drainage divide area located in Glacier County, Montana. The Milk River originates along the east boundary of Glacier National Park and flows generally in a northeast direction across Glacier County before entering southern Alberta and eventually joins the […]
Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to determine landform origins in the Chouteau County, Montana Marias River-Teton River drainage divide area. The Teton and Marias Rivers originate along the eastern slopes of the Montana Rocky Mountain front and flow in roughly east directions onto the Montana plains and into Chouteau County before the Marias […]
Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to determine landform origins in the Marias River-Pondera Coulee drainage divide area located in Pondera County, Montana. The Marias River flows in an east-southeast and east direction along the north edge of the drainage divide area while Pondera Coulee is an east and east-northeast oriented Marias River tributary […]
Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to determine landform origins in the Cut Bank Creek-Two Medicine River drainage divide area of Glacier County, Montana. Cut Bank Creek and the Two Medicine River both originate along the east side of the east-west continental divide in Glacier Nation Park and flow in generally east directions onto […]
Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to determine Two Medicine River-Birch Creek drainage divide area landform origins near the continental divide in Glacier, Pondrea, and Teton Counties, Montana. The Two Medicine River originates along the continental divide in southeast Glacier National Park and flows in an east direction to join Cut Bank Creek and […]
Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to determine landform origins in the Two Medicine River-Birch Creek drainage divide area east of the mountains in Glacier and Pondera Counties, Montana. The Two Medicine River originates along the east-west continental divide in the Glacier National Park southeast corner and then flows in an east direction onto […]
Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to determine landform origins for the Birch Creek-Teton River drainage divide area located in Pondera and Teton Counties, Montana. Birch Creek originates along the east-west continental divide and flows onto the Montana plains where it is a northeast-oriented tributary to the Two Medicine River, which then flows to […]
Abstract: This essay uses topographic map evidence to interpret landform origins along and near the Montana Marias River-Flathead River drainage divide segment of the east-west continental divide. The Marias River is an east-oriented Missouri River tributary with Missouri River water eventually reaching the Gulf of Mexico. Marias River tributaries including northeast-oriented Birch and Badger Creek […]
Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to determine landform origins in the Teton River-Missouri River drainage divide area located in Chouteau County, Montana. No effort has been made to introduce evidence from other sources. The Teton River originates in the Montana Rocky Mountains and flows in roughly an east direction onto the Montana plains […]
