1979 Map of Denton

About this map

The central Montana town of Denton serves as the focal point of this Fergus County survey, situated at the intersection of local agriculture and regional transportation. The Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad bisects the terrain, tracing a path south of Wolf Creek and past the Hillcrest Cem. The landscape is defined by its distinct plateau formations, notably the Alton Bench to the north and the Iowa Bench to the south, which overlook the winding drainage of Pacer Coulee. Rural infrastructure is well-represented, including the Denton Airport adjacent to the town and the larger Denton Municipal Airport located further southwest. Local civic and recreational life is evidenced by the Rodeo Ground and Athletic Fields, while industrial sites like the Gravel Pit and numerous Storage Bins reflect the area's grain-handling and extraction activities.
