1972 Map of Minnehaha Creek South
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
The Little Wolf Mountains define the southern landscape of this 1970s Montana survey, where the border between Treasure and Big Horn counties cuts through a series of dramatic coulees and creek beds. Ranching operations like Wilson Ranch and Hays Ranch are established along the watercourses, supported by numerous wells and natural springs. Evidence of mid-century infrastructure is visible in the pipeline and a remote landing strip situated near the headwaters of Minnehaha Creek. The western edge of the sheet shows the influence of the Burlington Northern Road following the path of Sarpy Creek, indicating the essential role of rail transport in moving resources from the Gravel Pit and livestock from the surrounding drainages of Horse Creek and East Fork.
