1964 Map of Fort Belknap Siding

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Milk River meanders through the heart of this North Central Montana landscape, defining the agricultural and logistical character of the Paradise Valley. In the mid-1960s, the irrigation infrastructure of the Fort Belknap Canal and Harlem Canal supported the valley's ranching and farming operations. The Great Northern railroad runs parallel to the river, serving as the primary transit artery with a key stop at Fort Belknap Siding. North of the tracks, the terrain rises into higher ground marked by coulees, while to the south, the Fort Belknap Indian Reservation Boundary marks a significant jurisdictional line. Local industrial activity is evident at the Gravel Pit near the siding and the Pumping Sta located near a sharp bend in the river, illustrating how water and rail shaped this Blaine County corridor.
