1984 Map of Bowdoin

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Nelson Reservoir dominates the northern reaches of this Phillips County landscape, a central hub for the Nelson State Recreation Area. This 1984 survey illustrates a region defined by sophisticated water management in a semi-arid environment, visible through the course of the Dodson South Canal and the meandering path of Beaver Creek. Small settlements like Sleeping Buffalo and Wooldridge are situated near these water sources, while the southern portion of the sheet transitions into the conservation lands of the Bowdoin National Wildlife Refuge Unit. The presence of Dry Lake and various coulees, such as Thomas Coulee, highlights the natural drainage patterns that have historically shaped ranching and travel in this part of Montana. The settlement of Bowdoin marks a key point of interest for those tracing the development of local transport and infrastructure.
