1962 Map of Silver City

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Silver City sits at the southern edge of this Lewis and Clark County landscape, where the Great Northern railroad tracks cut across the high Montana terrain. The 1962 survey reveals a region defined by its water management and ranching history, evidenced by the extensive Justisson Ditch, Vincent Ditch, and Gans Klein Ditch networks that divert flow from Little Prickly Pear Creek and its tributaries. Near the settlement of Chevalier Ranch, the map captures the physical imprint of early resource extraction, including Dredge Tailings along Silver Creek. To the north and west, the elevation rises toward the prominent peak of Baldy Mountain, while the local education of the era is marked at the Canyon Creek Sch. The presence of a Pipeline and multiple jeep trails suggests a landscape transitioning between traditional ranching and modern utility infrastructure.
