1963 Map of Musselshell NW

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Howard Coulee and its many drainage branches carve through this high Montana landscape, revealing a mid-century period of energy exploration and cattle ranching. The map indicates a network of Oil Wells and a specific Oil Well scattered across the township lines of the T. 11 N. and T. 10 N. boundary. The hydrological system is well-defined by Willow Creek and North Willow Creek, alongside smaller drainages like Little Wall Creek. These water sources were vital for the homesteads and livestock operations that defined Musselshell County's economy. Traceable landmarks such as Haroldson Spring and several Gravel Pit sites provide clear reference points for local history researchers and those interested in the industrial footprint of the early 1960s.
