1965 Map of Clear Water Reservoir

About this map

The Garfield Co Rosebud Co boundary line bisects this mid-1960s landscape, which is defined by an intricate network of intermittent drainage and upland water sources. The map focuses on the rolling topography surrounding Thompson Creek and the headwaters of the North Sunday Creek. A central point of local significance is the North Sunday Sch, situated near the confluence of the West Fork North Sunday Creek. Settlement is sparse, represented by localized points like Thompson and Mabdin, suggesting a community built around ranching and limited resource extraction. The presence of Pride Springs and several wells indicates the critical importance of water management in this environment, anchored by the Clear Water Reservoir in the northwest. This survey provides a precise record of rural Montana infrastructure before modern developments, highlighting small-scale landmarks like a local Sandpit.
