About this map

The Bears Paw Mountains dominate this 1993 study of north-central Montana, where the peaks of Baldy Mtn and Moses Mountain rise sharply above the high plains. Much of the western terrain is defined by the Rocky Boys Indian Reservation, featuring a complex network of coulees and ridges such as Manikanis Ridge and Keifer Ridge. Historical importance is marked at the Nez Perce National Historical Park Bears Paw Battlefield in the northeast, the site of the 1877 surrender of Chief Joseph.

Small agricultural and ranching settlements like Cleveland, Maddux, and Warwick dot the landscape, connected by tracks like Keifer Road. Resource extraction is evident through the southern Gas Field and localized operations like the Blackjack Mine. Notable infrastructure includes a Radar Station and the Rodeo Ground, reflecting the region's diverse land use near the junction of Hill, Blaine, and Chouteau counties.
