1968 Map of Swift Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Lewis and Clark National Forest defines the southern and western portions of this Montana landscape, where the Blackfeet Indian Reservation Boundary cuts across the drainages of Birch Creek and South Fork Whitetail Creek. The map captures the rugged interior of the Front Range before modern development, centered on the Swift Reservoir and its Spillway 4884 at the eastern edge. Notable peaks like Mount Poia and Feather Woman Mountain tower over narrow drainages such as Hungry Man Creek and Haywood Creek. The dramatic geography of the Major Steele Backbone creates a natural divide, while the border between Pondera and Teton Counties runs through the high country near Mount Richmond. This 1968 survey documents the remote water-control infrastructure and traditional boundaries of the Blackfeet lands in a period of relative isolation.
