1956 Map of Edgar

An intricate network of water management features, including the Edgar Canal, Bartlett Canal, and Orchard Canal, illustrates the scale of the Missouri River Basin development project during this era. To the east, the terrain rises sharply toward Two Bear Ridge, while local history is marked by features like the Rockvale Cemetery and the industrial activity of a Gravel Pit. The map captures a moment when surface irrigation was essential to the valley's agricultural economy.
