1953 Map of Carter

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Carter serves as the central hub of this Chouteau County landscape, situated where the Great Northern railroad cuts through the high plains. The topography is defined by the deep incisions of the Teton River in the north and the Missouri River in the southeast, with significant drainage features like Weatherwax Coulee and Bullhead Coulee shaping the descent toward the water. A shifting landscape is evident in the notes of discontinued services, including the Carter Ferry (Aband) on the Missouri and the Baack School (Aband) to the north. These markings, along with the O'Reilly School, provide a specific look at the rural educational and transit infrastructure that supported the region's agricultural development during the early 1950s.
