1973 Map of Cameron Point

About this map

The Fort Peck Indian Reservation Bdy cuts across the southwestern corner of this high plains landscape, where the drainage of Porcupine Creek and West Fork Peck Creek meets the undulating breaks of Valley County. In the early 1970s, this area remained characterized by its critical water sources, evidenced by numerous named springs such as Calderwood Spring and the presence of the Midway Dam on the Middle Fork of a coulee. The land is defined by prominent topographical landmarks like Cameron Point and the natural corridor known as The Pass. The sparse road network, including the Fuhrman Road, reflects the vast pastoral distances and the seasonal flow of waterways like Snow Coulee, providing a clear record of the intersection between reservation boundaries and rural Montana ranching territory.
