Montana Hydrological Map
Water is literally the lifeblood of any state. If you’re drawn to water, you know that how and where it flows tells the story of a place. Our Montana Hydrological Map shows in fascinating detail how the state’s rivers and streams flow and interconnect, merge and diverge, carrying life to the land. The flow of water also has an inherent aesthetic elegance that our map captures beautifully.
It’s all in the details. Our map depicts every river in the state—even intermittent streams—and every body of water with a diameter greater than .2 miles. For an extra aesthetic touch, we apply a method called the Strahler Stream Order to show the hierarchy of streams as they flow from their source—rivers are shown thicker as they acquire the flow of tributaries. We think it enhances a sense of the interconnectedness of our waterways.
In our Hydrology Series, you’ll not only find your favorite rivers and lakes, but you’ll also be able to trace their origins and outflow and appreciate the beauty of their connections.
Made in the USA
We consider our maps to be works of art, so we print and frame them accordingly. We offer two choices of print surfaces: fine-art archival paper and stretched canvas.
Every map is custom printed. We have no inventory. Only when we receive your order do we produce your print on our 12-color giclée printer, using top-quality archival inks that will never fade.
Fine Art Paper - Our archival paper is museum-quality, 100% cotton, acid-free, and certified to last 100 years. This assures sharp details, true colors, and exceptional durability.
Frames (w/ Fine Art Paper) - Our thin hardwood frames are handmade from real Maple or Walnut, not pressed wood with veneer. Fine Art Paper prints will come mounted behind a clear acrylic, with mounting hardware attached to it. Please allow 2-3 weeks for your frame to arrive.
Canvas Gallery Wrap - If you prefer a frameless look, order your map on stretched canvas, which offers a bit more depth and texture. We use archival canvas, gallery-wrapped and varnished, stretched around a 1.5-inch-thick wood frame.
Yay! Loved it, perfect for the home office of 2 hydrologists! Arrived very quickly, great addition to our new home.
Very happy with this beautiful hydrologic map, the printing is excellent and the piece makes a great centerpiece!
I am very pleased with the hydrologic map I ordered. The quality is excellent and the detail of the map is outstanding. The experience with Muir Way was also excellent, as the print was easy to order, shipping was easy, and the print came to my home well protected and undamaged. I have ordered one for myself and one as a gift with the same result both times. I am very pleased with Muir Way and would recommend them!
I was gifted the hydrology map of Washington State, my home. I loved it so much that I thought to gift Montana’s map to my sibling. The blue is brilliant. The detail of the waterways is mesmerizing.
I'm really happy with this! It'll be a great gift for my boyfriend who loves to fish. I think it's a tad overpriced, and the frames are ridiculously expensive but that's okay. Very nice, aesthetically pleasing canvas. Great shipping time.
