1951 Map of Kelly Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Kelly Hills and the winding course of the Yellowstone River define this Montana landscape, where the border between Sweet Grass and Park counties follows the local topography. This 1951 field check reveals a ranching economy deeply tied to water management, visible through the extensive network of the Westfall Ditch and various flumes and canals. The map documents the persistent legacy of early settlement through sites like the Old Kelly Homestead and the Gage Pioneer Memorial, alongside active mid-century operations like the Long Horn A Ranch and Bow Ranch. Educational and transport infrastructure is represented by the Duck Creek School and the Northern railroad line, while crossings like Sioux Crossing indicate established routes through the rugged drainage basins of Duck Creek and Hunters Creek.
