1996 Map of Ramsay

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Silver Bow Creek carves a path through this high-altitude landscape, where industrial mining and national forest lands converge. The settlement of Ramsay serves as a focal point, supported by local infrastructure including a Post Office and Substation. The map reveals a history of extraction, evidenced by the Butte and Zenith Mine and numerous Prospect Adits scattered across the terrain. To the east, the community of Nissler sits near the confluence of major drainage systems and a prominent Pipeline, while heavy industry is indicated by the presence of Tailings and Sewage Disposal Ponds. The northern and eastern sections are dominated by the Deerlodge National Forest, where steep drainages like Telegraph Gulch and Meadow Gulch define the topography. This survey captures a moment when traditional resource extraction and modern communications, represented by a Communication Tower, coexist in the mountains of Silver Bow County.
