1941 Map of Judith Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Ruins of Fort Maginnis and its associated Fort Maginnis Cem anchor the eastern slopes of the Judith Mountains, representing a transitional era in central Montana. This 1941 survey captures the waning mining pulse of the region, specifically around the settlements of Maiden and Giltedge. The landscape is heavily marked by industrial activity, with numerous entries such as the Spotted Horse Mine and the Giltedge Mine (inactive) illustrating the scale of gold and silver extraction that once dominated these peaks. Beyond the mines, the map details a developing rural infrastructure including the Great Northern Railroad corridor and several local schools like Cheadle Sch and Pleasant Plains Sch. This contrast between the high-altitude industrial sites like Judith Peak and the agricultural valley along Chippewa Creek provides a clear view of the diverse land use in Fergus County during the early 20th century.
