1970 Map of South Bench

About this map

The Little Snowy Mountains rise sharply across this central Montana landscape, marking a dramatic transition in terrain that defines the border between Fergus and Golden Valley counties. The map showcases the high tablelands of Middle Bench and South Bench, which dominate the northern and central portions of the quadrangle. These flat-topped features give way to the complex drainage systems of the North Fork and South Fork Flatwillow Creek, which have carved deep valleys through the limestone uplands.
