1972 Map of Fairview NW

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Antelope Butte rises above a landscape defined by the intricate drainages of the Missouri River watershed in Richland County. Surveyed in the early 1970s, this area shows a transition toward energy extraction, characterized by numerous Oil Well sites, a Gas Plant, and various Drill Hole locations scattered across the draws and coulees. The rural character is anchored by the Fourmile Cem, situated near the confluence of Fourmile Creek and its North Fork. The map records a complex network of seasonal waterways, including Otis Creek, Benson Coulee, and the distinct branches of Second Hay Creek and Third Hay Creek. This documentation of the land's industrial use alongside its natural topography provides a clear view of eastern Montana's ranching and resource-extraction heritage.
