About this map

Stillwater River drainage patterns and the early settlements of the northern Absaroka foothills define this landscape. Compiled from aerial photographs in the early 1930s, the map documents a transition between valley ranching and the high wilderness of the Beartooth National Forest. Local infrastructure is concentrated around small postal hubs like Beehive PO and Dean PO, while education for the surrounding homesteads was served by the Keller Sch and Fishtail Sch. The survey traces numerous trails winding through the Beartooth Plateau, connecting the lower valleys to alpine features such as Emerald Lake and West Rosebud Lake. Prominent landmarks like Fishtail Butte and Nellies Twin Buttes provided essential navigation points for residents traveling the network of roads and early pipe lines through Stillwater County and Carbon County.
