About this map

The Fort Belknap Indian Reservation Boundary defines the eastern portion of this landscape, where the meandering drainage of Peoples Creek and Mud Creek shape the topography. This 1964 field-checked survey illustrates a sparsely settled area of Phillips County characterized by complex coulee systems like Elder Coulee and Kuhr Coulee that feed into the larger creek beds.

A sense of the local infrastructure is visible through utilitarian markers such as the Gaging Sta along the water and a Gravel Pit near the eastern edge. Small landmarks like East Belknap and the North Fork provide essential points of orientation for researchers mapping family land or water rights in this Missouri River Basin development area. The map's detail on fence lines and unimproved dirt roads reflects the rural ranching and reservation life of the mid-1960s.
