1961 Map of Melrose

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Big Hole River carves a deep path through this Montana landscape, where the settlement of Melrose stands as a rail-centered hub on the Union Pacific line. This 1961 survey, updated in the late 1970s, reveals a terrain defined by early extraction and sophisticated water management. Numerous mining operations, such as the Old Glory Mine and Maiden Rock Mine, dot the slopes of Old Glory Mountain and the surrounding gulches, while an intricate network of irrigation canals like the McCauley Ditch and Pendergast Ditch divert water to the valley floor.
