About this map

Poplar River winds through this corner of the Fort Peck Indian Reservation, creating a complex drainage network within the Missouri River watershed. This 1983 provisional survey captures a landscape defined by its hydrography, where the main river is fed by numerous secondary waterways like Lone Tree Creek and Short Creek. The topography is marked by deeply incised features such as Swank Coulee, which illustrate the erosion patterns characteristic of northeastern Montana. The lack of named settlements or schools on this sheet emphasizes the pastoral and open nature of the terrain during the late 1970s and early 1980s, primarily serving as rangeland within Roosevelt County. The map also delineates the southern reaches of Hay Creek, providing a detailed record of the natural contours and seasonal watercourses that shaped the rural economy and land use of the period.
