1937 Map of Lake Frances

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

The Blackfeet Indian Reservation occupies much of this Montana landscape, where the deeply incised Two Medicine River and Birch Creek carve through the plains. The town of Valier sits on the eastern shore of Lake Frances, serving as a hub for the surrounding ranching and irrigation operations. A network of canals and ditches, including the Fisher Canal and Lauffer Ditch, illustrates the massive effort to water this arid region.
