About this map

The St Louis Southwestern railroad cuts through the southern reaches of this Miller County landscape, providing a vital transportation link near Artex. To the north, the terrain transitions into the wide, flat drainage of the Red River, characterized by complex oxbow formations like First Old River Lake and Second Old River Lake. The rural character of the early 1950s is evident in the scattered community nodes of Hervey, where the Hervey Sch served local families, and spiritual centers like Tregg Ch and Troy Ch. Higher elevations are found at Wolf Mountain and Krause Hill, with the former featuring a prominent Lookout Tower. Industrial footprints of the era are visible through Gravel Pits and scattered Oil Wells, while the Rock Springs Dam and various Pipe Line segments illustrate the managed infrastructure of this river-border region.
