1961 Map of Melrose

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Melrose serves as the focal point for this survey along the winding course of the Big Hole River, where the Union Pacific railroad parallels the water through the valley floor. The map captures a landscape defined by its irrigation and mining history, evidenced by an extensive network of water systems including the Mc Cauley Ditch, Pendergast Ditch, and Stone Creek Ditch. These engineering efforts supported the area's agricultural and mining operations during the mid-20th century.
