Map of Montana
The state's topography is
roughly defined by the Continental Divide, which splits much of the state
into distinct eastern and western regions. Most of Montana's hundred or more
named mountain ranges are in the state's western half, most of which is
geologically and geographically part of the northern Rocky Mountains. The
Absaroka and Beartooth ranges in the state's south-central part are
technically part of the Central Rocky Mountains. The Rocky Mountain Front is
a significant feature in the state's north-central portion, and isolated
island ranges that interrupt the prairie landscape common in the central and
eastern parts of the state. About 60 percent of the state is prairie, part
of the northern Great Plains.
