1970 Map of Pine Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Little Powder River meanders through this portion of Powder River County, Montana, defining a landscape shaped by water and resource extraction. The 1970 field check reveals a reliance on groundwater, evidenced by numerous labels for Flowing Well and Well scattered across the drainages of Allison Creek and Spring Creek. The terrain is marked by distinctive landmarks like the Rocky Butte and the Bell Tower, which served as navigation points in a region of rolling breaks and intermittent draws. Industrial activity is localized around several Gravel Pit sites, while the presence of scattered Drill Hole markers indicates ongoing mineral or oil exploration. This survey captures the transition between the uplands near Bear Creek and the alluvial valley where the river creates a narrow green corridor through the arid plains.
