1964 Map of Jordan NW

About this map

White Horse Divide dominates the northeastern corner of this Garfield County landscape, serving as a primary topographic feature for a network of drainages that define the local hydrology. This 1964 survey, field-checked by the U.S. Geological Survey and USC&GS, captures the area's transition into the Missouri River breaks ecosystem. The terrain is deeply incised by seasonal watercourses including Hogs Back Creek, Bear Creek, and Frazier Creek, which follow the natural contours of the high plains toward the north and south. Human activity in this remote stretch of Montana is sparse, marked primarily by the presence of a Well in the central sections and a Gravel Pit to the southeast, reflecting a landscape focused on ranching and essential infrastructure rather than concentrated settlement.
