1954 Map of Bell Ridge East

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Fort Peck Game Range dominates the central landscape of this Phillips County territory, where the complex drainage systems of Little Cottonwood Creek, Rock Creek, and Siparyann Creek carve through the high plains toward the southern boundary. Along the southern edge, the Missouri River defines the local geography, featuring Jones Island and the adjacent Bell Bottoms. The terrain is characterized by the prominent elevation of Square Butte and the stretching landform of Bell Ridge. This 1950s survey captures the area as part of the Missouri River Basin development program, illustrating a sparsely settled environment focused on conservation and water management. The absence of established towns highlights the region's character as a protected wilderness and ranching frontier, with the Duval Creek drainage further detailing the intricate topography of the Montana breaks.
