1968 Map of Hyde Creek

About this map

Two Medicine Ridge and the high peaks of the Continental Div dominate this 1960s topographic survey, revealing the complex hydrology and terrain of the Montana Rockies. The landscape is split by the Blackfeet Indian Reservation Boundary in the northeast and the expansive Lewis and Clark National Forest across the central and southern reaches. Water defines the topography here, with the South Fork Two Medicine River and its various tributaries like Sidney Creek and Whiterock Creek carving deep paths through the timbered slopes. High-altitude landmarks such as Mount Pablo and Mount Baldy, the latter featuring a Radio Facility, serve as significant navigational points. The map also records early industrial exploration in this wilderness area, noting several Drill Hole locations near the Glacier Co Pondera Co boundary line.
