1965 Map of Sun Prairie

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Sun Prairie Flats dominate the northwestern landscape of this Phillips County survey, illustrating the characteristic topography of the Missouri River Basin development area. The small settlement of Sun Prairie serves as a focal point for the region, anchored by the Sun Prairie Sch situated along the open plains. This 1965 record, updated with 1980s aerial data, reveals a network of intermittent watercourses that carve through the prairie, including Telegraph Creek and Dog Creek. These drainages, along with the Box Elder Coulee in the north and Box Elder Creek to the south, define the erosion patterns and land use in this part of Montana. The map provides a precise look at the section lines and unimproved dirt roads that connected isolated homesteads and schoolhouses during the mid-20th century.
