About this map

The Yellowstone River cuts a prominent path through this 1950s landscape, serving as a geographic divide and the foundation for regional irrigation. Significant engineering is evident in the Cove Ditch and Big Ditch, which divert water to support agriculture along the river valley. The Northern Pacific railroad follows the northern bank, passing through the small siding at Rapids and near Youngs Point, illustrating the vital connection between rail transport and the rural economy.
