1984 Map of Bennett Lake

About this map

Bennett Lake and the surrounding Phillips County plains are captured here in a 1984 survey that emphasizes the delicate hydrology of the northern Missouri River breaks region. This landscape is defined by its seasonal water features and intermittent drainages, including the elongated Solberg Slough and the winding course of DHS Creek. The presence of the Alkali Flat and Alkali Creek indicates a terrain shaped by mineral deposits and high evaporation rates, common in this part of Montana. As a provisional edition based on 1978 field checks, the map provides a look at the township and range grid across these northern reaches, specifically documenting the boundaries between Townships 27 and 28 North.
