1951 Map of Kelly Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The Yellowstone River corridor defines the southern landscape of this 1951 survey, where the Northern Pacific railroad tracks parallel the water and a series of livestock operations. This ranching-heavy area in Sweet Grass County and Park County is marked by generational landholdings like the Old Kelly Homestead, Long Horn A Ranch, and the Carney Ranch. The importance of water management in this arid Montana environment is evident through the network of the Duck Creek drainage and various irrigation features, including a Canal and Ditch systems. Educational and community life in this era centered on the Duck Creek School and the Pioneer Memorial, while historical transit is noted at Sioux Crossing and segments of the old abandoned road winding through the Kelly Hills.
