1956 Map of Cleveland

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Bearpaw Mountains dominate the southern portion of this landscape, characterized by prominent peaks like Miles Butte and Crown Butte. This mid-century survey illustrates a remote ranching and farming region in Blaine County, where local life centered around a network of country schools such as New Hope Sch, South Fairview Sch, and Red Rock Sch. In the northern plains, the tiny community of Cleveland sits near the headwaters of Cleveland Creek, while the complex drainage systems of Snake Creek and Peoples Creek carve through the terrain. A significant historical site is preserved at the Chief Joseph Battleground Historical Markers, noting the Nez Perce's final struggle. The distribution of small churches like Blessed Sacrament Ch among these coulees and buttes provides a detailed record of the mid-20th-century rural social structure in the high plains.
