About this map

The Little Bighorn River meanders through this landscape, marking a terrain defined by mid-century infrastructure and 19th-century history. The Custer Battlefield National Monument dominates the central portion of the sheet, where researchers can identify the Museum, Custer National Cemetery, and the Historical Monument nearby. To the south, the Reno-Benteen Battle Site and Weir Point offer specific spatial context for the surrounding conflict sites.

Settlement patterns in the late 1960s are anchored by Crow Agency and Garryowen, both tied to the Burlington and Quincy Chicago railroad line and the newly established I-90. Local utility and social markers are clear, including the Filtration Plant, Radio Towers, and the Rodeo Ground. The map also captures smaller details like Medicine Tail Ford and the Torske Landing Strip, illustrating the diverse transport and water-management networks of the Agency Canal system.
