1950 Map of Collins

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Teton River and Muddy Creek define the agricultural landscape of this north-central Montana region during the mid-century development of the Missouri River Basin. The small settlement of Collins serves as a local hub along the Great Northern railroad, supported by grain infrastructure such as Zims Elevator. The map reveals a dispersed rural community organized around its schools and spiritual sites, including Superior School, Caskey School, and South Liberty Sch, alongside the Beek Cem. Prominent topographical features like the Teton Ridge and Bole Bench overlook the expansive plains, while smaller landmarks like Farmers Coulee and Bole Gap indicate the practical geography used by local ranchers and farmers. This 1950 field check captures the area's rail-dependent economy and its network of country roads before modern consolidation changed the rural school system.
