USGS Topo · Published 1953About this map
The Gallatin River and Missouri River converge in this mid-century portrait of Montana's agricultural heartland. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of irrigation, featuring works like the Lowline Canal, Moreland Ditch, and Sloan Ditch, which support numerous family-named properties such as the Jorgenson Ranch and Mc Donnell Ranch. Settlement patterns follow the competing steel of the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific and Northern Pacific railroads, which bisect the valley floor.
