1972 Map of Kuester Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Richland Co and Dawson Co border divides this section of the Montana plains, where the Burlington Northern railroad cuts a straight path across the northern landscape. This 1972 survey, based on 1970 aerial photography, reveals a region defined by its water sources and industrial infrastructure. The namesake Kuester Lake sits as a central landmark amidst a network of drainage systems, including Redwater Creek in the northeast and South Fork Lisk Creek at the southern edge. The presence of a prominent Pipeline and several scattered well sites across the terrain indicates the area's role in the region's energy resources. These features contrast with the deeply etched coulees and breaks that shape the local topography, providing a detailed look at the land's transition from agricultural use to modern utility corridors in the early 1970s.
