About this map

The Blackfeet Indian Reservation dominates this mid-1930s landscape, where the high plains meet the eastern fringes of Glacier National Park. This era was defined by a complex network of ranching operations and water management, evidenced by numerous family homesteads such as Bird Ranch, Kuka Ranch, and Wagner Ranch alongside the developing Fisher Canal and Lauffer Ditch. The geography is bisected by the meandering Birch Creek and Medicine River, providing vital resources for the region's agricultural transition.
