1984 Map of Bowdoin

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Nelson Reservoir dominates the northern portion of this landscape, its waters reaching the Nelson State Recreation Area and the small community of Sleeping Buffalo. This 1984 edition captures a region defined by extensive federal land management and rural water engineering in Phillips County. To the south, the Bowdoin National Wildlife Refuge Unit encompasses the flats around Dry Lake, illustrating the area's importance for migratory birds and conservation. The meandering path of Beaver Creek winds through the central and eastern sections, passing the small settlement of Wooldridge. In the southwestern corner, the location of Bowdoin marks a point of historic interest near the wildlife refuge boundary. This provisional survey provides a look at the land use and topographic character of the Montana plains before later modern developments, noting terrain features like Thomas Coulee and various unnamed 4WD trails crossing the prairie.
