About this map

The Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation and the industrial landscape of the Big Sky Strip Mine anchor this 1980 survey of southeastern Montana. The map illustrates a unique juxtaposition of federal lands, tribal sovereignty, and heavy industry during a period of coal expansion. Large-scale surface operations like the Lame Deer Strip Mine and the Coal Cr Mine are visible alongside the established community of Colstrip, while the southeastern portion of the map is defined by the wooded expanse of the Custer National Forest.
