1965 Map of Sloan

About this map

The Flathead River snakes through the western Montana landscape, creating dramatic geographical features like Big Bend and The Oxbow as it moves along the border of Lake and Sanders counties. This mid-1960s survey captures the region's sophisticated irrigation infrastructure, essential for agricultural life in the shadow of the Moiese Hills. A network of water management features, including the Moiese Canal, Moiese Lateral, and Hillside Ditch, crisscrosses the valley floor, supporting local hubs like Moiese Camp. The map provides specific genealogical and community details, locating the Moiese Sch and Moiese Bible Ch, which served the rural population near Hillside Reservoir. Between the river's winding path and the rising terrain, the presence of various Gravel Pits and springs reveals the intersection of natural resources and early 20th-century development in this corner of the state.
