1969 Map of Jack Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Tongue River winds through the northern portion of this Montana landscape, creating a wide riparian valley that contrasts with the dissected uplands to the south. Mapped from aerial photography taken in 1968, the terrain is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems, including Jack Creek, Plunket Creek, and Ash Creek. This period in Custer County's history shows a sparsely settled ranching or resource-focused environment, marked by isolated developments such as a Landing Strip and various Wells scattered across the township lines. The southern reaches are more topographically complex, where Haddow Creek and Winter Creek carve through the rising elevation toward a prominent Butte. The map serves as a precise record of water access and remote infrastructure in the high plains before further modernization altered these drainage patterns.
