This is a geospatial map created by the Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC) for the Soft Rock Weed Control project in T7N R20W Section 36, located approximately 2 miles east of Corvallis, Montana. The map details a 45-acre area targeted for weed management, specifically focusing on cheatgrass infestation control. The map identifies state land boundaries, isolated weed patches, primary infestation areas, and observed cheatgrass locations, with geographic features including Soft Rock Road, Soft Rock Creek, Coalpit Creek, and Sapphire Ranch.

The map provides a detailed visual representation of the weed control project area, highlighting yellow and orange zones indicating primary infestation areas and a small red zone marking observed cheatgrass. Multiple yellow markers denote isolated weed patches spread across the terrain, which appears to be a mix of open grassland and forested areas. The project is scheduled for spring 2025, with the map created on 2/18/2025 by Thayer Jacques Hamilton from the DNRC, suggesting a targeted approach to invasive species management in this specific section of Montana's landscape.
