1962 Map of Creston

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Flathead River meanders through a complex network of oxbows and backwaters in this 1962 field-checked study. The landscape is defined by its dramatic hydrology, featuring numerous named waterways such as Egan Slough, Church Slough, and Half Moon Slough that illustrate the shifting course of the river over time. In the northwest, the Stillwater Game Preserve encompasses the confluence where the Stillwater River joins the Flathead, marking a significant conservation zone. The small settlement of Creston and nearby Lake Blaine anchor the eastern side of the sheet. For local historians, the map preserves the locations of several rural education centers, including Fairview Sch, Montford Sch, and Egan Sch, providing a clear record of mid-century community infrastructure before later consolidation. This area of Flathead County shows a distinct transition between protected wetlands and the agricultural grids that surround these vital water systems.
