1954 Map of Baker Monument

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Missouri River winds through the northern reaches of this mid-century survey, marking the intersection of Fergus, Blaine, and Phillips counties. Along its banks, the remnants of early infrastructure are visible at the Powerplant (Ruins) and a nearby Gaging Sta. The landscape is dominated by complex drainage systems, including the branching Two Calf Creek and South Fork Two Calf Creek, which cut deep through the breaks south of the river. Evidence of local education and community organization appears at Heller Sch, serving the scattered homesteads of this prairie landscape. To the west, the prominent high point of Baker Monument stands as a significant local landmark, while Barnes Ridge provides a natural divide to the southeast. These features illustrate the sparse but deliberate settlement pattern typical of the Missouri River Basin during the early 1950s.
