1973 Map of Killenbeck Reservoir

About this map

Killenbeck Reservoir and the winding drainage of Butte Creek anchor this agricultural landscape in northeastern Montana. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the map reveals a remote prairie economy defined by long-distance rail transport and dispersed grain infrastructure, evidenced by numerous Storage Bins scattered across the township lines. The Burlington Northern railroad cuts a diagonal path through the southern half of the quadrangle, following the natural contours near Spring Coulee. The topography is dominated by dramatic relief features like the Four Buttes in the east and deeply carved seasonal waterways such as Olson Coulee and Brush Creek. This document provides a detailed look at the rural section corners and land use patterns of Daniels County before modern consolidation altered many of these smaller homestead sites.
