About this map

The Milk River meanders through the heart of this Blaine County landscape, defining a complex network of oxbows and riparian terrain. In the early 21st century, this area remains characterized by its irrigation infrastructure and agricultural roots, visible through the systematic paths of Main Canal A and Main Canal B. The settlement of Savoy sits at a crossroads of rural routes like Old Savoy Rd and River Rd, serving as a focal point for the surrounding plains.

Cultural and historical markers are etched into the geography, most notably at the Fort Belknap Cemetery. This site, along with natural features such as Old Thunder Slough and the winding White Bear Creek, provides a window into the land's heritage. The map details a transition from natural watercourses like Savoy Creek and Wayne Creek to the engineered waterways that sustain the region's ranching and farming economy.
