About this map

Armington sits at the northern confluence of two significant drainages in this 1975 orthophotoquad, which uses aerial imagery to document the transition between high plateau agriculture and the carved-out river bottoms. The landscape is defined by the deep, winding incision of Belt Creek as it runs north along the eastern edge of the sheet, contrasted by the more seasonal, branching path of Neel Creek through the center. Large-scale strip farming and dryland wheat patterns dominate the upland benches, revealing the 1970s land-use footprint in this part of Cascade County. The imagery provides a clear view of the road network and ranch access points as they follow the natural contours of the coulees and creek beds, providing a precise spatial record for researchers studying mid-century Montana agriculture or local family ranching history.
