1973 Map of Carbert

About this map

Carbert sits at the heart of this high plains landscape along the international border, where the Daniels County line meets the boundary between the United States and Canada. The area is defined by a series of drainages, most notably Coal Creek and Butte Creek, which carve through the terrain and suggest the ranching and resource extraction economy of the mid-1970s. A local Gravel Pit and scattered sources of water like a prominent Spring underscore the importance of local materials and reliable hydration in this rural northern environment. Fine red dashed lines indicate selected fence lines, providing a detailed look at land management and property division during this era of agricultural history in northeastern Montana.
