1972 Map of Girard

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Girard serves as the primary landmark in this section of Richland County, situated in a high prairie landscape defined by a complex network of intermittent watercourses. The drainage patterns of Lone Tree Creek and its North Fork dominate the central and southern portions of the terrain, while the northern sections are carved by the headwaters of Main Hay Creek and First Hay Creek. Evidence of mid-century industrial activity is scattered across the township lines, indicated by several Oil Well sites and a drill hole that point to the region's mineral exploration history. The presence of a Gravel Pit and numerous wells further illustrates the practical development of this rural Montana landscape during the early 1970s. This survey, based on 1971 aerial photography, provides a precise record of property divisions and the winding course of Hardscrabble Cr along the northern boundary.
