1953 Map of Eagle Buttes

About this map

Missouri River carving through the heart of north-central Montana defines this 1953 survey, revealing a landscape of dramatic erosion and early extraction. Along the high breaks, evidence of small-scale industry appears at the Sexton Coal Mines and the Waldman Coal Mine, both noted as inactive by the mid-century. These sites, coupled with the Air Shaft in the northwest, point to an era of localized coal mining that once supported the surrounding homesteads and small settlements like Graceville.
