1961 Map of Melrose

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Melrose settlement serves as the central hub for this early 1960s survey, situated along a busy stretch of the Union Pacific railroad and the Big Hole River. This landscape is defined by its complex irrigation network, featuring the McCauley Ditch, Pendergast Ditch, and Braugh DITCH, which diverted water from the river to support local ranching and agriculture. The surrounding mountains are marked by a legacy of extraction, visible through numerous mines and named sites like the Old Glory Mine and Berlin Mine.
