1963 Map of Belmont Park Ranch

About this map

Belmont Park Ranch sits at the heart of this high-elevation landscape along the border of Madison and Beaverhead Counties. Published in the mid-1960s, the map documents a quiet period of pastoral use where cattle operations relied on a network of natural water sources like Honeymoon Springs and Spring Brook Spring. The terrain is defined by deep incisions such as Dry Hollow and Peschi Draw, which transition into the broader drainage of Sweetwater Creek. This sheet highlights the isolation of mid-century Montana ranching life, where connectivity was limited to the Sweetwater Road and a sparse network of secondary routes. Small residential outposts like Fries Place are noted, providing specific locations for genealogists tracing family land holdings in this high country before more modern consolidation changed the ranching landscape.
