1973 Map of Box Elder Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Pumpkin Creek meanders through this landscape in Powder River County, Montana, providing a primary drainage for a network of seasonal watercourses. The area is characterized by an intricate system of drainages, including Box Elder Creek and Salty Creek, which reveal the erosional patterns of the local topography. This 1972 survey, field-checked in 1973, captures a region defined by its ranching and resource potential, indicated by a Drill Hole in the central section and a Flowing Well near the eastern margin. The map traces historical land use through landmarks such as Double Corral Cr and various named branches like Camp Creek and Lake Creek. The placement of these water sources and wells highlights the essential infrastructure of remote Montana cattle country during the early 1970s.
