1973 Map of Horseshoe Basin

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Horseshoe Basin characterizes this portion of Daniels County, Montana, where the high plains are carved by drainages like Martin Coulee and Blackhawk Coulee. The landscape in 1973 reveals a sparsely settled ranching and grain-growing region, punctuated by numerous Storage Bins and isolated springs. The Burlington Northern railroad serves as the primary corridor for movement, cutting an east-west path across the central terrain. Small named locales such as Lewarton and Templeman represent the quiet nodes of activity during this era. The topographic detail follows the winding West Fork Poplar River in the south, illustrating the relationship between the prairie water sources and the upland landmarks like Gregerson Hill and Richland Hill.
