1961 Map of Melrose

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Melrose serves as the focal point for this survey of the high mountain terrain along the Silver Bow County border. The Big Hole River winds through the landscape, flanked by the Union Pacific railroad line and a series of complex irrigation systems including the McCauley Ditch, South Ditch, and Pendergast Ditch. This network of ditches illustrates the historical importance of water management in supporting both the local agricultural efforts and the area's industrial interests.
