1970 Map of Forestgrove

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Forestgrove anchors this 1970s landscape where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad follows the valley of the South Fork McDonald Creek. This agricultural and ranching district is defined by a dense network of watercourses and springs that drain the local high points, such as McDonald Butte and the elevation at Blacktail. The presence of a small Cem near the primary settlement suggests the deep roots of early homesteading families in this part of Fergus County. The topography reveals a transition from the railway-oriented valley floor to the steep drainages of Surenough Creek and Rose Canyon Creek, reflecting the importance of both rail transport and reliable water sources to the region's development during the mid-20th century.
