About this map

The tiny settlement of Fergus serves as the central focal point for this landscape where the high prairie meets the northern foothills of the Judith Mountains. This 1985 survey captures the area’s ranching and transit character, notably preserved through the remnants of an Old RR Grade cutting through the center and a remote Landing Strip near the western edge. The terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainages, including Dry Armells Creek, Blood Creek, and Box Elder Creek, which carve deep through the undulating topography. In the southern reaches, the map reveals the sudden elevation of Cone Butte, a prominent landmark within the larger mountain range. This study provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure of central Montana, showing the isolation and specific landscape features that dictated early settlement and movement through the region.
