About this map

Miles City serves as the regional hub at the confluence of the Yellowstone River and the Tongue River in this 2014 survey. The map details the intricate infrastructure of the river valley, including the Tongue and Yellowstone River Irrigation District Canal and the BNSF Railway corridor. Residential expansion is visible north of the primary town center at Westwood Estates, while the eastern portion of the map is dominated by the prominent landform of Signal Butte.

Genealogists and local researchers will find several significant burial grounds documented, such as Custer County Cem, Calvary Cem, and the Pine Hills Sch Cem. The presence of Miles Community College and the Frank Wiley Field Airport highlights the city's role as a center for education and transportation in eastern Montana. Unique landscape features like Pirogue Island and the high point at Carbon Hill provide a clear picture of the terrain surrounding this historic river settlement.
