1984 Map of Loring

About this map

Loring serves as the focal point of this northern Montana landscape, situated in the vast prairie lands of Phillips County during the mid-1980s. The settlement's layout and surrounding section lines reflect the late 20th-century agricultural and ranching patterns of the region. To the northeast, the drainage of Whitewater Creek cuts through the terrain, providing a distinct geographic contrast to the surrounding high plains. As a provisional map, this sheet captures the essential topography and rural infrastructure of the area exactly as it was documented during late-1970s field checks, preserving the location of local benchmarks and transport routes through this portion of the Milk River valley hinterlands.
