1965 Map of Antelope Butte

About this map

The confluence of the Smith River and the Missouri River dominates this mid-1960s landscape south of Great Falls. The terrain is defined by broad plateaus including Sun River Bench and Truly Bench, which drop sharply toward the winding river valleys. This area reflects a mix of vital infrastructure and natural landforms, where the Burlington Northern railroad tracks parallel the river's path, and local landmarks like Antelope Butte and Wilson Butte rise above the surrounding flats. Industrial activity is evident through numerous Gravel Pits and a Quarry located near the northern reaches. The proximity to the city is signaled by the edge of the Great Falls International Airport at the northeast corner, while more rural access is maintained via Tenmile Lane and River Road. The map also captures several natural Spring outlets and the deep cut of Lord Coulee feeding into the river system.
