1972 Map of Spring Creek Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The rugged breaks and flooded coulees along Fort Peck Lake define this 1970s landscape on the border of Garfield and McCone Counties. The map covers a complex shoreline where the rising waters of the reservoir created intricate inlets like Spring Creek Bay and Sand Arroyo Bay. Much of the territory falls within the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Range, reflecting the area's preservation for wildlife and remote recreation. The presence of Hell Creek State Park in the southeast corner, complete with its Picnic Area, highlights the transition of this Missouri River country into a hub for water-based activities. Topography here is marked by steep drainages such as Polecat Coulee and Humphrey Coulee that feed into the vast Dry Arm of the lake.
