1972 Map of Poverty Flat West

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Green School serves as a small educational landmark in this 1970s landscape of eastern Montana, where the expansive Poverty Flat benchland drops toward the complex drainage system of Deer Creek. The terrain is deeply incised by numerous coulees, such as Kelley Coulee and Cottonwood Coulee, illustrating the erosive character of this semi-arid region. Economic activity is visible through a scattered network of petroleum extraction sites labeled as Oil Well and Drill Hole, alongside a localized Strip Mine in the southern sections.
