1973 Map of Peerless 4 NW

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Fort Peck Indian Reservation Boundary marks a significant cultural and political transition across the southern portion of this Daniels County landscape. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the map reveals a rugged terrain defined by the winding course of the West Fork Poplar River and its varied tributaries. The drainage patterns of Police Creek, Hell Creek, and the deep incision of Shipstead Coulee illustrate the complex erosional geography of the northern plains. This area is characterized by isolated agricultural infrastructure, notably the Storage Bins in the western reaches, and numerous Spring points that indicate vital water sources for ranching in an otherwise arid environment. The presence of fine red dashed lines throughout the map highlights the intricate system of selected fence lines, providing a detailed record of land use and property divisions during this era.
