1969 Map of Kenilworth SW

About this map

Lewis and Clark Trail markers trace a historic path through this portion of Chouteau County, where the high plains are deeply incised by a series of drainage systems including Sixmile Coulee and Twelvemile Coulee. The landscape reveals a transition from traditional transport to modern aviation, evidenced by the presence of a Landing Area and the remnants of former infrastructure marked as Old RR Grade. These linear features cut across a terrain otherwise defined by natural drainages like Dry Fork Coulee and Spring Coulee. Small-scale human markers such as the Schlack triangulation station and an isolated Grave provide specific points of interest for researchers of local history and genealogy. The map effectively captures the vast, open character of this Montana region as it appeared in the late 1960s, balancing topographic natural features with the faint footprints of historical movement and early 20th-century development.
