1956 Map of Rattlesnake Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The rugged topography of Rattlesnake Butte overlooks a highly engineered landscape in the mid-1950s, defined by the irrigation infrastructure of the BBWA Canal. The map reveals a complex network of water management features including the Twelvemile Siphon, Crooked Creek Siphon, and an Aqueduct, all supporting the agricultural development of Yellowstone County. A Levee contains the waters of the Rattlesnake Reservoir, while the surrounding terrain is etched with numerous ditches following the natural contours of Crooked Creek and Twelvemile Creek.
