1971 Map of Boston Coulee School

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Smith River carves a deep, winding path through this portion of Cascade County, creating a dramatic canyon landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and numerous coulees. During the early 1970s, this area remained largely rural, characterized by expansive ranching or agricultural tracts separated by drainage features like Murphy Coulee and Rocky Coulee. The presence of the Boston Coulee School near the center of the sheet indicates the historical importance of localized education centers for the scattered families living along the river breaks. A single Prospect located near Chicken Coulee hints at the geological exploration common in this terrain, while numerous unnamed Spring labels suggest the vital importance of natural water sources for sustaining life and livestock in the semi-arid Montana high country.
