About this map

North Fork Redwater Creek and East Fork Redwater Creek carve a complex drainage pattern through this part of Richland County. Published by the U.S. Geological Survey as a provisional map, the document highlights a landscape defined more by its hydrological network than by human settlement. The undulating topography is broken by the significant valley of Horse Creek, which cuts through the northern section of the quadrangle. Aside from the natural watercourses, a notable piece of mid-century infrastructure is the Pipeline that traverses the terrain, indicating the regional industrial activity related to energy transport during the late 1970s and early 1980s. This survey, based on 1976 aerial photography, provides a clear record of the watershed and land contours before more modern developments altered the surface of this Montana prairie.
