1969 Map of Ihmsen Well

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Ihmsen Well 2758 and the seasonal waters of Lonesome Lake anchor this 1960s study of the Missouri River Basin in Chouteau County. The landscape is defined by its agricultural infrastructure and transport corridors, notably the Burlington Northern railroad slicing diagonally across the southeastern corner. This rail line follows the historic route of the Lewis and Clark Trail, connecting the era's modern freight movement to the region's earliest recorded explorations. Scattered Storage Bins and a central Gravel Pit suggest a working landscape of grain production and road maintenance. The terrain is marked by numerous coulees that drain toward the lake bed, illustrating the natural drainage patterns of the high plains before significant modern development altered the drainage of the basin.
