1970 Map of Faris School

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Flat Coulee cuts a deep, winding path through the prairie landscape along the border of Pondera Co and Chouteau Co in this 1970 survey. The map centers on the high-plains social infrastructure of the mid-twentieth century, anchored by the Faris School and the East Community Center. These modest structures, along with the East Community Well, reflect the communal focal points of a sparsely populated ranching or farming district where water sources and schoolhouses defined local geography. A Pipeline and a singular Drill Hole suggest the quiet presence of resource exploration and utility expansion across the open terrain. The topography is characterized by subtle elevation changes and the dramatic incision of the coulees, illustrating how the drainage patterns of the northern Montana plains dictated the placement of roads and remote community outposts.
